The Division of
University Advancement

A team of Canada’s top advancement professionals works with donors, alumni, students, faculty, and staff on U of T’s ambitious fundraising and alumni engagement goals. 

Through our current Defy Gravity campaign, the team supports U of T’s commitment to inclusive excellence – the idea that every member of our community should thrive in  
an environment of belonging – and helps the University bring together top minds from every conceivable background to create a healthier, more sustainable, and equitable world.

Under the leadership of the Vice-President, Advancement, the Division fosters a culture of respect, compassion, and inclusion. These values are our strengths, which we live and build upon in every interaction within the organization and beyond.
