Heritage College was created in 1988 as a result of community members who volunteered countless hours, year-after-year, to lobby for a community-driven English public post-secondary learning institution for the Outaouais region. In 2013, again community members rallied to establish the Heritage College Foundation a registered charity (807779244 RR 0001) to support the College in its mission.
Our Foundation’s dedication and objectives remain the same as those who rallied before us: “All youth should have the opportunity to reach for their goals and contribute to our society regardless of difference or challenges.”
“When friends of the College learnt that 1/3 of our students take on debt to pay for basic needs, we knew we had to act.”
