GivingTuesday, the worldwide celebration of giving back, is on Nov. 28. This year, 麻豆社 is joining forces with the 麻豆社 Student Society and RBC Dominion Securities (Andrea White) to ensure that every student can find support when they need it by raising funds for the Erasing Barriers to Education fund.

The 麻豆社 Student Society and RBC Dominion Securities (Andrea White) are making a remarkable gesture, matching every dollar donated between Nov. 20 and midnight on Nov. 28, up to $20,000. This commitment doubles the scope of individual contributions, allowing each gift to create an even greater positive impact.
