BINM Development and Advancement Strategy

BINM is committed to building strong relationships with companies and other institutions interested in establishing ties with the Institute. BINM identifies three main categories for partnering:

1. Commercial companies interested in accessing naturopathic medical students to share information on their services and products. Companies can engage in two possible campaigns:

•  Partnering with BINM
•  Facilities naming opportunities

2. Gifts and grants from foundations, companies, individuals or research funding institutions

3. Student-community based initiatives that relate to community building and community interaction.

BINM Tuition income is generally directed towards operational needs and expenses such as rent, hydro, salaries, office materials, etc. Monetary gifts from individual or commercial partners are directed to capital projects such as building, equipment, etc.

BINM decided to part ways with the traditional idea of needs-based fundraising and welcomes a new approach centered in building close relationships with partners interested in sharing BINM's success.

If you'd like to become a partner, please contact:
