An incredible year of generosity

It’s hard to believe that we’re quickly approaching the end of 2022! It has been a year filled with both challenges and successes. You have helped students through the forces of nature and increased funds for paid student work opportunities and emergency bursaries through Rapid Response. Your response to students’ urgent times of need doesn’t go unnoticed.

Additionally, we are now back to celebrating our donors and alumni with in-person events! It has been a pleasure to engage with our community face-to-face again to celebrate milestones and accomplishments and host fun events to bring everyone together.

As we prepare for an exciting year in 2023, we’d like to thank each of you for your incredible contributions to the NSCC community.

With great appreciation,

- The NSCC Foundation Team
