Pursuing a post-secondary education often presents challenges, but when students face food insecurity, it's certainly one of the hardest. Developed in 2015, The Nourishing Minds Fund was created to battle food insecurity on campus. Your gift on Giving Tuesday could help prevent food insecurity for our students by providing emergency grocery cards to students in need. 

This year, our Giving Tuesday campaign is also supporting our Adopt-A-Family program. Each year around the Holiday season, Niagara College's Give Back Committee organizes this program in support of student families in need. Some families will receive gifts for each child, food, Christmas dinner, gifts for mom and/or dad, as well as some gift cards for groceries, gifts, and other necessities. 

Giving Tuesday is the perfect opportunity to give back during the busy holiday season and support a Niagara College student experiencing challenges.

Created in 2012, Giving Tuesday is a global movement that started with a simple idea: what if there was a day that encourages people to do good. This message has since reached over 73 countries, with $36 million collectively raised in Canada last year alone. 

Make this year's giving season one to remember. Donate today and help ease a student's financial pressure.
