Anti-Bullying Day 2020

As an inclusive post-secondary institution, Sprott Shaw College proudly participates in and supports Anti-Bullying Day. For this cause, our campuses wear pink shirts and participate in fundraisers to take our stand against bullying behaviour. Year after year, we’ve seen prosperous results from the efforts at our campuses – and this time was no exception.

This year, Anti-Bullying Day was on February 26^th. Once again, our 16 campuses and head office participated in pink t-shirt sales and a variety of campus events including fundraisers, bake sales, and raffle draws.

We would like to extend a special shout to our School of Trades and East Vancouver for their incredible efforts and contributions. Our Trades campus raised $670 through t-shirt sales and a very successful raffle thanks to the generous donations of Milwaukee Tools and our East Vancouver campus raised over $522 through t-shirt sales.

Collectively through the fundraising efforts, our campuses raised a whopping $3,998.70, which is more than double of what we raised last year!

From the money raised, 100% of proceeds will be going to Kids Help Phone to help children and youth in need of support. But that’s not all! Sprott Shaw College will also be matching all the numbers raised for Kids Help Phone (up to $5,000) – which means that we will be donating a grand total of $7,997.40! This number is a testament to how strongly our students, staff, and campuses believe in helping and supporting one another.

A big thank you to everyone who donated and participated in any way. We couldn’t have accomplished all this without your help so thank you!
