�鶹����’s spirit of giving was recognized by the United Way of Kingston, Frontenac, Lennox and Addington with the first ever Ironstone Achievement Award.

The �鶹����’s community received the award for being the first workplace campaign to top the $500,000 mark, finishing the 2025 campaign with more than $524,000.

“Receiving the inaugural Ironstone Achievement Award is an honour for �鶹����’s and a testament to the generosity and shared purpose of our staff, faculty, and retirees,” says Principal Patrick Deane. “Year after year, our community demonstrates its commitment to supporting our neighbours across Kingston, Frontenac, Lennox and Addington. Surpassing the $500,000 milestone reflects not only remarkable generosity, but a collective belief in building a stronger, more compassionate region.”

During the United Way KFL&A Volunteer Awards Luncheon on April 29, �鶹����’s also received the Ruby Leadership Award for having over 40 members who donated more than $1,200 – referred to as Leaders of the Way – to the campaign. The awards are displayed in Mackintosh-Corry Hall next to the Special Recognition for Staff Awards board. 

The �鶹���� United Way campaign is organized by a volunteer committee with support from campus champions.

Funds raised through the campaign support programs and services reaching more than 68,000 individuals across the region. The United Way KFL&A works with local partners to address critical needs such as food security, mental health and addiction support, and homelessness.
