Lambton launches five-year, $45M capital campaign

Lambton College recently launched a new, five-year $45M capital campaign called “Funding Futures.” The funds raised through the campaign will support the development of an Indigenous gathering space and outdoor recreation commons, the improvement of classrooms and student spaces, and the creation of new student funds and bursaries to support student wellness. “Our graduates bring so much value to the community as people,” stated Lambton President Rob Kardas. “To reach their full potential, they need holistic education that educates the whole person, and a student experience that prioritizes their overall success and wellness.” The Observer reports that the college held a ceremony dedicating the $8M Indigenous gathering space to Indigenous learners and the First Nations communities that Lambton serves.
