Humber Gives is our annual fundraising initiative where Humber employees and members of the Humber community raise much needed funds for Humber students.
Message from our Co-chairs
“Humber Gives has given me the opportunity to honour my late sister, Angela Iacobucci, and her dedication to leadership, and education for underprivileged students.”
“I enthusiastically support Humber Gives because the campaign supports students. Heroic students whose dedication to their education is awe inspiring. Students who achieve outstanding grades in spite of facing financial challenges. We all teach students like this. They deserve our respect and support. Yet, sadly, many will not get scholarships because of insufficient funds. By donating to Humber Gives, I help ensure that every deserving student will graduate.”

“Why Humber Gives? I put my money where my heart is. For the price of a couple of lattes, I can walk the talk. Anything we can do to make it easier for students to come to Humber – that’s what I want to do.”

“This help is a big, big relief. With the help of a scholarship, I put the money toward my tuition for the Nursing Program and now I have more hours to study.”

“When I first heard about Humber Gives, I said, sign me up! This is my community, my second home and the campaign is my opportunity to give back. I received bursaries from Humber. They helped a lot, alleviated stress, and helped me get through my program. Humber is my place of education, work, and today it feels like home.”
— Daniel Castillo-Sanchez
Manager, Financial Aid, Office of the Registrar
“This scholarship helps so much! I have two part-time jobs to help make ends meet. This support will help by giving me the opportunity to reduce my work hours, thereby giving me more time to study. Thank you for supporting Humber students!”

“I talk to my students, I know what they face, day-to-day. Many students struggle with money issues so that is why I help with my donation to Humber Gives. I also invite some international students into my home for a home cooked meal every year to celebrate Chinese New Year together. It’s the little things that help to make them feel welcome and comfortable.”
