Give bright students the opportunity to shine

Established in 1999, The Marianopolis Millennium Foundation is the College’s registered charity that provides funds for student bursaries, financial aid and scholarships, academic program development and enrichment, and campus infrastructure and equipment.

The level of financial support provided to students is among the most generous in the Quebec college network, thanks to annual donations from parents, alumni and friends of Marianopolis.

    The College encourages parents, alumni and friends of the Marianopolis community to contribute their time and professional expertise, for example, by presenting a guest lecture, serving on a career panel, or mentoring students.

Your gift helps our students flourish

Since joining Marianopolis in 1990, I have seen nearly 27,000 students graduate from the College. And I take pride in knowing that I played a part in their Marianopolis story.

My first day, I was immediately struck by the excited buzz of voices all around me. There was an energy in the building – a spirit of camaraderie and warmth – and a sense that great things were happening across campus. I knew right away that I wanted to be part of this community. Thirty-five years later, I still feel that same positive energy throughout the College.

Former students often tell me that their time at Marianopolis was the most memorable and impactful part of their academic journey. Many of our graduates trace significant life milestones back to their time at Marianopolis, whether it was meeting lifelong friends, learning from inspiring professors, or discovering new academic passions. And that hasn’t changed. I see it every day in how our students support and encourage each other and in their commitment to developing the knowledge and skills they need to make a positive impact in the world.

Your gift will help sustain that tradition and allow even more students to benefit from the Marianopolis experience.

“Marianopolis students are motivated, curious and eager to take on new challenges ― but those challenges shouldn’t be financial ones. I want students to be able to push themselves academically, to push the limits of knowledge, not to be limited by their economic circumstances.”
