The Outreach Fund is intended to be utilized by the Queen's Commerce Society for philanthropic and community outreach purposes. The ultimate goal is to encourage Commerce students to give back to the community (either Kingston or beyond), by donating their time or money.

While the Commerce Society is still free to commit monies from outside the Outreach Fund for outreach and volunteer purposes, there is reluctance to donate student fees directly to philanthropic and community outreach purposes. The central idea is that the Outreach Fund is financed by an optional fee for commerce students and that they can elect to donate money to the charitable-oriented fund.

The Outreach Fund is to be allocated for philanthropic and community outreach purposes. As such, any monies spent from the Fund must be for one or more of the following purposes:

- Charitable contributions
- Benefit a philanthropic cause
- Foster volunteerism

The Chief Financial Officers will evaluate proposals and allocate the fund in consultation with the Vice President of Operations. We will monitor this form on a weekly basis.

If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to ComSoc's 2021-2022 CFOs, Angelina Haniff (angelina.haniff@queensu.ca) and Alexia Tecsa (alexia.tecsa@queensu.ca).
