The Henry Bernick Entrepreneurship Centre, a successful outcome of phase one of the Power of Education Campaign, continues to grow and expand as a result of new investment and support during phase two of the campaign. For example, in 2014, local entrepreneur and philanthropist Peter B. Moore accelerated the college's entrepreneurship agenda by donating $250,000 to create the Peter B. Moore Changemaker Space. The innovative student-driven space enables students to identify challenges, innovate and fabricate new solutions. In 2017, to mark the college's 50th anniversary, local entrepreneurs Chris Adams (member of the phase two Campaign Cabinet) and Jessica Larche co-founded FUND50, a campaign to support startups and to foster an entrepreneurial mindset. This community-driven campaign has raised more than $50,000 to date. HENRY BERNICK ENTREPRENEURSHIP CENTRE Take your business further, faster 16
