The Advisory Board of the NTCI Foundation has an opening for a new director and treasurer. Qualifications for this position are being an NTCI grad and having the willingness and skill to perform this duty.

The NTCI Foundation is a registered charitable organization that supports the students and programs at NTCI. We do that by fundraising and making grants for graduation awards, student activities (both curricular and extra-curricular), and managing endowment funds created by generous alumni.

The Advisory Board is a made up of 18 volunteers including 15 alumni, the school Principal, and two student representatives. We meet Monday evenings six times per year in September, November, January, March, May, and June, and for one to two “Dragons Den” events where extra-curricular clubs make presentations and requests for funding.

Participation on the Advisory Board is a great way to give back to NTCI by supporting the energy and creativity of its students. If you are interested in helping us out, please contact Ron Wakelin, Chair, at rwakelin@utschools.ca.

This past February, NT student groups had the opportunity to request funds from the NT Foundation in the bi-annual Dragon’s Den. As part of our mandate, the NT foundation welcomes financial requests from student-led groups to help support the arts, athletics, and student well-being. Over the years, the Foundation has helped send students on outreach trips, supported in-school workshops and helped fund the annual Remembrance Day assembly.
