Queen’s University’s annual campaign for the United Way of Kingston, Frontenac, Lennox and Addington has raised more than $500,000, setting a new record for the university and local workplace campaigns, and surpassing the fundraising goal of $475,000.

“The continued support for the United Way from the Queen’s community is amazing, and a special thanks goes out to those joining the campaign for the first time,” says James Ligthart, chair of the Queen's United Way Committee. “Through these combined efforts, at a time of increasing financial adversity for many, to set a new record, with more than $500,000, is heartwarming.”

Community impact

Funds raised through the campaign support programs and services reaching more than 68,000 individuals across the region. The United Way KFL&A works with local partners to address critical needs such as food security, mental health and addiction support, and homelessness.

The overall campaign also set a record, raising $4.15 million. 

“These funds will make an important difference for people in Kingston, Frontenac, Lennox and Addington by providing essential resources to those who need them,” says Principal and Vice-Chancellor Patrick Deane, who also serves on the United Way KFL&A campaign cabinet. “Through these contributions, volunteer efforts, and support work, the Queen’s community continues to exemplify its strong commitment to compassion and service.”

The Queen’s University United Way campaign is organized by a volunteer committee with support from campus champions.
