Each school year, The University of Ottawa Marketing Association holds both exciting and informative events for students at the Telfer School of Management.

Find a summary of each of our great events below:

UOMA Charity Ball

Date: November 21st 6:00PM, Crowne Plaza Hotel

This year will mark the 20th anniversary of the UOMA Charity Ball. Commonly known to students at Telfer as the "marketing ball", each year this event draws some of the largest attendance numbers within the school for an event. Typically planned around a dinner and dance, this event is held annually for charity -- this year benefiting the Heart and Stroke Foundation. Every year, charity ball is full of great surprises and treats for students, including a silent auction and raffle - and this year proves to be the best one yet! Attending and investing in this event, is investing in a cure.
