Giving Tuesday Coffee Donations
Tuesday, December 3rd, 8:00am – 3:00pm
On Tuesday, December 3rd, proceeds from coffee sales at participating Food Services locations will support the Giving Tuesday faculty selected funds. For just 24 hours, the worldwide UVic community will be able to demonstrate how much the university means to us by giving back and paying it forward!
Between 8:00am-12:00pm, proceeds from coffee sales($1 drip and $2 specialty) at participating Food Services locations will support the Giving Tuesday funds. Find which location is supporting your fund here: www.uvic.ca/givingtuesday.
Last year, our campus and alumni community gave more than $35,000 to help students launch rockets, host conferences, attend competitions and travel overseas to do volunteer work. Together, those experiences are what makes the UVic student experience extraordinary—much like added “sprinkles” are to a cupcake or cookie.
This year, each faculty has selected a student-focused fund to support that will enhance the UVic student experience. On Tuesday, December 3rd, purchase a coffee and join us in adding more sprinkles to the UVic student experience (suggested donation $2.50).
