About the Donor

“I love being a university donor. There is nothing more magical than knowing you are giving someone an education and not knowing how it will impact them in the future or how it will affect others – but knowing that it will,” Louise Parkes explained. “Durham Region is incredibly lucky to have been awarded this university as it is our future. Its creation is a testimony to what a community can do when it comes together with a plan. Now it’s up to us to continue its growth, its path forward and its position in the community.”
