Listed below are the previous capital campaigns undertaken by the Cambrian Foundation:
Cambrian Transformation 2000: An Education Quality and Accessibility Initiative (SuperBuild) was established to provide the means to meet student access and programming demands. The project costs of $25.58 million were funded by $14.84 million from SuperBuild funds and about $9 million from industry partners. Educationally, this project addressed a number of key areas including: enhanced skilled trades programs and industry needs for technologically astute skilled trades people; applied research in the areas of wildlife restoration, eco-tourism, electronic control applications in harsh environments, industrial automation, and virtual learning; information technology enhancements that support student growth and employability; health care programs that reflect the diversity and directions of that field; and space requirements for the double cohort of students in 2003.
Ontario Student Opportunity Trust Fund (OSOTF) Campaign concluded on March 31, 2000. This campaign raised $1.12M, which was matched by the Province of Ontario to form a new Scholarship Endowment of $2.24M. Each year the interest generated by this endowment will be awarded annually to Cambrian College students.
