Community Partners’ Evening
Over the years, our Community Partners’ Evening has evolved into a cornerstone event, raising more than $800,000 in support of student scholarships, awards, and bursaries. Every year, we gather to honour the generosity of our partners and celebrate the impact they make on the Confederation College community.
Whether you're attending for the first time or are a long-time supporter, we welcome you to network, enjoy delicious cuisine prepared by our Culinary students, and participate in exciting fundraising initiatives like the Fund-A-Need Campaign. Stay tuned for next year’s details and how you can make a difference!
The 2024 Community Partners' Evening Recap

Lyle Knudsen, president of Equipment World and a proud alumnus, was honoured with the inaugural Community Partner of the Year Award for his remarkable dedication to philanthropy and education in Thunder Bay.
This year’s event was a tremendous success, raising $95,475 in support of Confederation College students.
