Ivey Social Impact Club

We’re excited to share the Ivey Social Impact Club’s 2025–2026 Impact Report 🌱🌎 The full document can be accessed through the link in our bio!

This year, our team focused on expanding pathways into impact-driven careers, deepening experiential learning, and strengthening the community that makes SIC so special. From consulting projects and cross-club collaborations to our ASCENT Conference and industry panels, every initiative was grounded in one idea: using business as a force for good.

This report captures the people, partnerships, and progress behind that work, and reflects the collective effort of an incredibly dedicated team.

Thank you to everyone who contributed, supported, and engaged with us this year. We are so excited to be handing the reigns to Alice Zou and Vanessa Curran to lead SIC through the 2026-2027 academic year.

-  Kieran Amoroso and Lauren Stenhouse
