CASCO charity organization is the Telfer School of Management’s student-run club, with all activities benefiting the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO). Through the shared vision of Telfer alumni Alexandre St-Jean and Tuan Nguyen, CASCO was founded in September 1998 in honour of Eric Danis, who passed away from leukemia.
Every year, CASCO produces an annual gala showcasing the talents of student philanthropists. Over the past 25 years, CASCO has touched and inspired thousands of students to give back and has raised more than $1.1 million for CHEO. This could not have been achieved without the support and generosity of sponsors. While the gala is the capstone event of the year, CASCO also organizes and participates in various other community events.
This year marked the highest amount raised thanks to sponsors who matched donations, with a total of $155,051 raised.
