More than $100 million now under BU Foundation stewardship

The Brandon University Foundation has reached a historic milestone, surpassing $100 million in total assets for the first time in its history. This follows a banner year of donor support in 2025, with new high-water marks for donations to the Annual Fund appeal and disbursements back to Brandon University for academic, institutional, and student support.

In 2025, the BU Foundation raised more than $4.36 million overall, including a record-setting $465,000 through the Annual Fund Appeal. Combined with strong investment performance, this brought the amount of total funds under the stewardship of the BU Foundation to more than $108 million, which cracked the nine-figure $100 million mark for the first time ever.

The BU Foundation also disbursed more than $3.6 million to Brandon University — another all-time high — with more than $2.2 million directed specifically toward scholarships and bursaries.
