Please join us Thursday, November 26th at Scotiabank Place for a reception dinner celebrating Ms. Tubman's accomplishments and then see your Ottawa Senators take on the Columbus Blue Jackets! Through this event we hope to raise $30,000 which when matched by Carleton University, and then combined with matching funds from the Government of Ontario-s Student Opportunity Trust Fund would realize an endowment fund of $90,000. This endowment, combined with funds previously contributed would realize a total of $360,000 endowed for children and youth in our communities.
