Ukrainian Students at RRC Polytech Need Your Support
The continued invasion of Ukraine is felt across the world – millions have fled their homes, countless have been evacuated, and others face threats to life. Manitobans are feeling the stress and anguish watching events unfold from afar, all while worrying about family and friends in Ukraine.
RRC Polytech is working to support international students from Ukraine studying in Manitoba. There are currently seven students from Ukraine with a combined tuition of $150,000 who need your support.
We are asking our RRC Polytech community to help students enduring financial hardship due to the war by donating today. Your support will provide resources to the Ukrainian students studying here, while directly impacted by the invasion of their home overseas. Helping others is what we do as Manitobans – please lend your support today.
If you donate before March 31, 2022, the Manitoba Scholarship and Bursary Initiative (MBSI) will contribute an additional $0.50 to support domestic students for every $1.00 given. This allows you to help even more students in need.
The devastation in Ukraine is not the first-time international students studying at RRC Polytech have been impacted by war. We are committed to supporting international and refugee students in humanitarian crises and emergencies and will continue to make sure aid is provided when needed.
Additional funds beyond the $150,000 goal will be directed to a new fund to support international students, including refugees experiencing humanitarian crises from around the world.
