The Purpose of the Daniel McIntyre Alumni Association
Empowering Future Generations Through Education and Community Support
The Daniel McIntyre Alumni Association is dedicated to upholding a legacy of academic excellence and community involvement. Our purpose is deeply rooted in the values and traditions that have shaped Daniel McIntyre Collegiate Institute since its inception in 1923. By fostering a strong network of alumni and collaborating with local businesses, we strive to build a vibrant community that supports the educational aspirations of current and future students.
Our Mission
The mission of the DMCI Alumni Association is to cultivate a lifelong connection between the school and its alumni while leveraging this bond for the benefit of students. We believe that by harnessing the power of our alumni network and local businesses, we can provide invaluable resources that enhance the educational experience and create new opportunities for students.
Supporting the Scholarship Fund
At the heart of our efforts is the DMCI Alumni, Athletic, Cultural, and Education Fund Inc. (DMCI AACE), which provides financial assistance to deserving students. This fund is crucial in helping students overcome financial barriers and pursue their academic dreams. Scholarships play a significant role in a student’s journey, allowing them to focus on their studies without the added stress of financial concerns.
Seeking Prizes and Donations
To sustain and expand the Scholarship Fund, we actively seek contributions from alumni and local businesses. These donations are essential to maintaining our scholarship programs. Prizes donated by businesses can be used in fundraising events, such as raffles and auctions, helping to generate additional funds for scholarships. Alumni contributions, whether monetary or in-kind, embody the spirit of giving back and serve as an inspiration to current students.
The Impact of Your Contribution
Every donation, regardless of size, has a profound impact on the lives of our students. By contributing to the Scholarship Fund, you are not only investing in the future of individual students but also in the future of our community. Education is a powerful tool that can transform lives, and your support enables us to provide this opportunity to those who need it most.

Over the years, the DMCI Alumni Association has helped countless students achieve their educational goals. Our scholarship recipients have pursued higher education and successful careers, becoming leaders in their fields and contributing positively to society. These success stories highlight the importance of our work and the generosity of our donors.
