The University of British Columbia community is coming together for Giving Day — a 24-hour celebration of generosity and impact. Faculty, staff, alumni, students, and friends are invited to join us in supporting initiatives that make a meaningful difference on campus and beyond.
This year, the School of Kinesiology and the Faculty of Education is proud to highlight four impactful funds:
🏅 Canadian Sport Institute Pacific and Mikulec Family Award in Sport Coaching
Supporting students in UBC’s Master of High-Performance Coaching and Technical Leadership program as they prepare to lead at provincial, national, Olympic, and Paralympic levels.
🎓 Faculty of Education Bursary
Providing essential financial support to aspiring teachers and kinesiologists, helping them focus on their studies and make a positive impact in classrooms and communities.
✨ Learn and Earn: An Initiative of Walk With Us
Supporting Indigenous students as early as Grade 11 through paid classroom experience, Education Assistant training, and pathways into the Native Indian Teacher Education Program (NITEP), strengthening representation in education.
🌈 CampOUT!
A transformative summer leadership camp fostering confidence, connection, and community for 2SLGBTQIA+ youth.
Every gift, big or small, helps create opportunities, remove barriers, and support the next generation of leaders.
