Support Students through Humber Gives and the SOS Fund Today

This year has been particularly tough on Humber students. As we all know, the pandemic has pulled the rug right out from beneath them, and they’re struggling to get back on their feet.  

Faculty and staff already do so much for students, and we hope that as part of Humber Gives, you’ll consider making a year-end contribution to the Support Our Students (SOS) Fund to help even more struggling students. 

Here’s an example of the impact your support can make: 

“I arrived in Canada with my family in January 2020 to study at Humber. We found jobs quickly, my child was in daycare and everything was going as planned. Unfortunately, due to COVID-19, we both lost our jobs and were desperate – we couldn’t go back to our country because the situation was worse there. We were able to get some food from the food bank, and at the same time, I received an emergency bursary from Humber. That moment was crucial and gave me hope and conviction that me and my family weren’t alone. I just want to thank all the people that made this support possible. Thanks to that, I am able to continue my education and support my family at the same time.”  

A big thank you to everyone who has supported to date. For those who would like to make a donation but haven’t yet had a chance, there is still time to make your gift to help even more students.

Humber will be matching all gifts up to $25,000 and we haven’t yet reached this goal. Help us get there while also doubling the impact of your support.

Every dollar truly makes a difference for a struggling student, especially in times like this. 

All donations received by December 31 will receive a 2020 tax receipt.

Thank you again for everything, and all the best for a happy and healthy holiday season!
