Every day, the incredible faculty and staff at Humber Polytechnic go above and beyond to make this a place where students can thrive and where each of us is proud to work. In honour of Employee Appreciation Day this coming March 7, you’re invited to show your gratitude by making a donation to acknowledge one of your Humber colleagues who has gone above and beyond, who has achieved an important milestone or who has made your time at Humber special.  

Your gift today can be directed toward one of our priorities: 

  • Supporting scholarships, bursaries and emergency funds — Gift a Humber education to students in need, helping them stay on track as they pursue their passions and bright future. 
  • Fighting student food insecurity — Provide direct subsidies to help students access food on campus while bolstering Humber’s efforts to conquer food insecurity. 
  • Empowering students in foster care — Help students in foster care (or “extended society care”) overcome their unique financial challenges while showing them we believe in their success. 

You can also choose to give back directly to your Faculty or department, where you’ll be able to see the impact of your donation first-hand.  

Plus, when you celebrate a Humber coworker for Employee Appreciation Day, you can also choose to send your honouree a personalized e-card to let them know that your donation was made and how their work is appreciated. 

Join us in celebrating the incredible contributions of our Humber family—make your gift today and help us make this year’s Employee Appreciation Day even more special!

EDIB Advisory Council

We are excited to announce that on Thursday, January 16, 2025, the Office of Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging launched the EDIB Advisory Council. This council has been established to support our ongoing commitment to fostering an inclusive, equitable, and welcoming environment for all members of our community. The EDIB Advisory Council will serve as a key advisory body, providing guidance, insights, and recommendations on initiatives and strategies related to the implementation, progress, and evaluation of the EDIB Action Plan.   

The launch of the EDIB Advisory Council is a direct reflection of our commitment to Building Brilliance, where a sense of belonging and equity is central to the academic and personal success of our students, faculty, and staff. Together, we are building a campus where everyone has the opportunity to succeed and contribute to a truly inclusive learning, working and living environment. 

As part of this initiative, we are also thrilled to inform you that community engagement sessions will begin Thursday, April 10, 2025. These sessions will offer an opportunity for all members of our community to engage in open dialogue, share feedback, and contribute ideas on how we can continue to make progress toward an even more inclusive and supportive campus environment. We encourage you to register online now for sessions, as your voice and perspectives are crucial to shaping the future of our community.  

We have also created an online EDIB Feedback Form where members of the community can share their thoughts and ideas on the implementation, progress and evaluation of the EDIB Action Plan. 

Thank you for your continued support and commitment to building a more inclusive and equitable community.
