Early Epledge Successes
The campaign has seen early success with the Epledge donation system with the City of Kingston raising over $47,000 in their first day on the system and Queen’s Retirees raising over $77,000 on their first day as well. A great start to both campaigns and thanks so much for all the amazing support!
