The impact of philanthropy
The Azrieli Foundation
The Azrieli Accelerator was created thanks to the generous support of the Azrieli Foundation and their commitment to investing in initiatives that create stronger, healthier communities. With the Azrieli Foundation’s transformational investment, we are committed to improving the lives of all those affected by neurodevelopmental disabilities by enhancing collaborations across the university, in the community, and throughout the global network.
Leveraging UCalgary excellence, made possible by philanthropy
The Azrieli Accelerator builds upon the university’s more than 50-year history of advancing related research, which has been supported by transformative investments by government, community partners and generous philanthropists, including the Alberta Children’s Hospital Foundation, the Owerko, Cumming, Hotchkiss, Snyder, Mathison, and Fenwick families and many others.

The Azrieli Foundation's gift to launch the Azrieli Accelerator is a powerful example of the incredible impact that donors make by investing in UCalgary initiatives.
