This is an updated notice. The notice has been extended to December 31, 2024.

As part of the Finch West Light Rail Transit (LRT) Project, crews will be doing minor curb, sidewalk, milling, road works, and final paving at Humber College Boulevard and Hwy 27.

The work started on June 17, 2024, and will last until December 31, 2024, approximately.

Lane closures between intersections may not occur simultaneously, but in stages, at different times. Consideration will be given to minimize traffic impacts to motorists.

Minor field modifications may occur when needed to complete work safely and minimize impact on the public.
 

The Humber Polytechnic Community Impact Fund (formerly Humber College Community Partnership Fund) has been established to provide financial support for community projects that create educational/training pathways for equity-seeking groups in our community.

Humber faculty and administrative departments are encouraged to apply!

Community Development is a core piece of the projects supported by this fund as is the process of helping communities build on their strengths to support individuals towards their full potential. These projects will work in partnership with local people and organizations to meet identified needs. 

Projects funded through this initiative provide the opportunity for faculties and administrative departments to cultivate partnerships with local community organizations. Assistance is provided to develop your project concept and connect you with relevant community stakeholders. 

Key funding priority areas:

• Increasing exposure and access to various pathways into education, training, and employment.
• Addressing barriers that limit access to education, training, and employment, particularly for equity-deserving communities.
• Building organizational capacity to help communities reach their full potential.

We hope everyone had an enjoyable Thanksgiving weekend.

A big thank you to all the faculty and staff who have donated to support Humber’s Student Food Security Fund.

Your support means helping a student to buy meals on campus when they otherwise may not be able to afford it. It means giving them better access to food, so they have one less cost to worry about. It means giving them the renewed energy and focus to perform better on exams, avoid missing classes or in some cases withdrawing from school altogether. As you can see - it means a lot!

For those who would like to make a donation and have not yet had the chance - you can do so online.

Thank you for helping us keep the spirit of Thanksgiving alive!

Sincerely,

Wanda Buote and Alvina Cassiani
Humber Gives Co-Chairs
