CASCO Charity Organization

CASCO is a student-run charity organization comprised primarily of Telfer School of Management students from the University of Ottawa. For the past 21 years, CASCO has produced an annual gala show, putting the spotlight on the talents of Telfer students which has raised over $691,000 for the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO). The much anticipated soirée is one comprised of song, dance and fashion, and succeeds in unifying 200 students, 200 business professionals and 200 community members with the common goal of providing support for CHEO and promoting social responsibility among business students. Over 600 tickets are sold out within 3 weeks every year. CASCO is the training ground where commerce students can apply business knowledge to raise awareness and funds for charity causes, and see first hand what difference their involvement in the community makes.Our mission is to contribute to the well-being of our community, by ensuring that the future of our business community is socially responsible through a collaboration of business professionals, community members, and commerce students.
