Lakehead for Life
There are more than 77,000 Lakehead University alumni living and working around the world. In collaboration with the Alumni Association, the Alumni & Community Engagement unit is responsible for building lifelong relationships with our alumni by:
- delivering engaging programming and exclusive benefits

In addition to our alumni engagement work, we encourage philanthropic support for the Lakehead Annual Fund, which supports student scholarships, bursaries and awards, as well as campus projects and a wide range of academic and non-academic initiatives. Our office also champions several fundraising campaigns each year that engage our campus community, including Giving Tuesday and our homegrown crowdfunding platform, Lakehead Giving.
