Thank you, changemakers: Here’s to you for helping us raise $21,436

Here’s to the learners
The ones who sit in the front row — and the ones who find their courage in the back.
The students who raise their hands, ask hard questions, and chase the “aha” moments that change everything.

This Giving Tuesday, you showed them what community really looks like. Together you helped raise $21,436.

Because of you — your shares, your conversations, your encouragement, and your gifts — UFV did more than just run a campaign; we rallied a movement around students who are already shaping the Fraser Valley and beyond. You helped turn curiosity into courage and community into change: one class, one learner, one story at a time.

What your support made possible

  • More students can continue their studies with confidence, supported by bursaries that help reduce financial strain
  • More moments of doubt have turned into milestones of achievement
  • More classrooms, labs, and studios have become launchpads for leadership, creativity, and future changemakers.

Every repost, every hallway conversation, and every text to a friend added to the momentum. Many of you gave early, helping build excitement and amplify impact — thank you for leaning in before the day even began.

Keep the story going

The best part of Giving Tuesday isn’t the day itself; it’s the ripple it creates in the weeks and months that follow. If you’d like to keep amplifying UFV students and their stories:

Thank you for all the ways you invest in students — on campus, online, and across the Fraser Valley — every single day. While others may see a student, you see a changemaker. And you proved that when our community believes in learners, learning becomes leadership.

Here’s to the learners.
