Together, We Create

Head, Heart, and Hand Fund: Powered by NSCAD Alumni

As NSCAD alumni, we know the value of what our university community gave us — spaces to create, mentors who inspired us, and experiences that shaped our lives. Now, we have a chance to give back in a way that ensures those opportunities remain vibrant for future students.

The new Head, Heart, Hand Fund: Powered by NSCAD Alumni supports what makes NSCAD exceptional—studio access, creative spaces, mentorship, and experiences that aren’t covered by the operating budget. Supporting this new philanthropic initiative is a simple but powerful way to make an even bigger impact. It allows the university to invest in areas that directly affect students but are difficult to support through the operating budget, including studio access and maintenance, upgrades to student lounges and common spaces, accessibility and sustainability improvements, and student travel, exhibition, and mentorship and experiential learning opportunities.

what your donation will do

A monthly gift at a level that feels right for you—whether $5, $10, $25 or more—will demonstrate to our alumni community and to the philanthropists we approach that NSCAD’s alumni leadership is stepping up when the school needs us most.
