How will you take part in this year's UBC United Way campaign?

October 24, 2022

UBC’s annual United Way campaign is underway now until December, providing an opportunity for staff, faculty and community members to come together and raise funds for a great cause.

United Way British Columbia is strengthening vital connections that support people in need in our local communities, across BC. All money raised locally will stay locally.

There are a number of ways you can get involved with this year’s campaign:

  • Donate to United Way British Columbia and make a positive impact on your local community. You can choose to donate by payroll or a one-time gift.
     
  • Join this year’s Coffee campaign (UBC Vancouver only) – anyone who pledges $5 per pay (or $120 one-time gift) by October 31 will be mailed a coffee card to use at participating UBC Food Services locations in the month of November
     
  • Participate in this year’s Pay it Forward campaign (UBC Vancouver only).
    From Oct 24–Oct 28 pay half of your parking fines and UBC Parking will pay the other half. All funds will be donated to the United Way campaign.
     
  • Attend an upcoming United Way Pit Stop at UBC Okanagan.
    November 17, 11:00am at COM 107, and
    Nov 23, 9:30–10:30am at the Gym
