Frequently Asked Questions
But I only received beverage support. Do I need to fill out a report?
Yes. As part of your agreement to the community advised sponsorship program, you are required to submit a report. This helps us when we compile a report for Coca-Cola Refreshments to provide an accurate depiction of their contributions to KPU.
Is there some sort of signage for Coca-Cola that I can use to promote them at my event?
Yes! The Office of Advancement has a Coca-Cola banner that can be signed out for promotional use at your event. Please contact the Office of Advancement to arrange for pickup at or by phone at 604-599-2010.
I’m confused. Is there someone who can help me?
If you have questions about funding at KPU, please contact Lisa Robinson at for assistance.
