Did you know that only 20 per cent of Humber students who apply for scholarships receive support? You can help us improve the odds.

A gift today will directly support Humber students. For as little as $5.00 per pay, you can make a difference in the life of a deserving Humber student.

With rising tuition and living costs, you can imagine how challenging it can be for a first-time college student or someone returning to school to support their education and career aspirations. By providing scholarships, we are able to provide freedom and peace of mind -- our students are free of financial worry and free to focus on their studies.

Join your colleagues who have already made a commitment and supported this year’s Humber Gives campaign.

Click here to make your gift today. You can choose where you want your gift to go, and every gift makes a difference.

Thank you for taking the time to help.

Sincerely,

Continue to follow these safety tips to make sure this special time of year is fun and safe for everyone: 

  • Use a proper step stool or ladder to hang or adjust ornaments or decorations.
  • Watch the placement of electrical cords; avoid creating trip hazards.
  • Don’t “daisy chain” electrical cords together or overload outlets.
  • Ensure wreaths, ornaments and other trimmings do not cover emergency exit signs or block access to fire hose cabinets/fire extinguishers etc.
  • Remember to unplug tree lights and other electrically operated decorations before leaving for the day and before you leave for the holiday break!

Health and Safety Services would like to wish everyone a happy, healthy and safe holiday season!

We would like to thank each of you for contributing to our successful United Way campaign this year.

This year, through a collaborative effort that spanned across departments, academic schools, and campuses we were able to raise $75,961.41. This is just over $1,000 from last year’s successful campaign, and is also very impressive when we consider that the education sector as a whole has experienced difficulty in meeting their fundraising targets from 2014. Importantly, this year’s campaign, like many years prior, was a team effort.

We would like to thank everyone for their time, efforts and ideas in planning and executing all of the events. Without all of you on board, we would not have made such a difference in our community.  

Kind Regards,

Michael O’Leary and Paul Iskander
Co-Chairs, United Way Committee
