Giving Season Results

You’re awesome, Dawson! The tradition and spirit of giving at Dawson College has been evident in the past few weeks leading up to Giving Tuesday on Dec. 3 and it continues!

Here are some results:

  • An amazing mobilisation in response to the needs list provided by Financial Aid. Yvonne Dudley has received thousands of dollars of food and hygiene products and wanted to thank the community: “Again this year, the Dawson Community has humbled me. Your generosity continues to overwhelm when asked to help our less fortunate. The storage is healthy and the shelves are full. This holiday season is aplenty. Thank you for always answering the call. You are truly appreciated.”
  • 44 children in care of Batshaw Youth and Family Centres have been adopted for Christmas by Dawson employees and students. Their letters to Santa are being answered by generous people in our community. If you still want to participate, please contact jharvey@dawsoncollege.qc.ca before Friday.
  • Donations to the Financial Aid Office through the Dawson College Foundation to feed students.
  • The partner Cuban community that will welcome our North-South students this month still has many unmet needs. Please drop off your donations in 4B.1-13 for our students to hand deliver them.
