Employee donors
UVic is more than just our place of work. It’s a place where we get to make a difference. We help students realize their potential. We contribute to healthy and sustainable communities. We help find solutions to some of the world’s most complex problems.
Employee donors see this first-hand and choose to invest back into the university to further support our meaningful work.
Did you know? 1 in 5 of UVic's monthly donors are UVic employees!
