Together, we made history! With the close of our Campaign for Concordia: Next-Gen Now, we surpassed our original $250 million goal with a grand total of $365 million raised in support of teaching, learning and research.

Our campaign milestone was achieved as we marked Concordia’s 50th anniversary, which is set to close on October 28 at our fall convocations.

The Campaign for Concordia’s tremendous success was made possible by the generosity and shared vision of tens of thousands of donors — alumni, friends, faculty, staff, retirees, students, foundations and corporate partners. Thanks to each and every supporter!

As we celebrate the close of our campaign, we set our sights firmly on the future — ready to build on this momentum and drive Concordia’s next chapter of progress and impact.

With heartfelt thanks and gratitude, please enjoy our campaign newsletter.
