On Tuesday December 1, 2026, the MRU will celebrate our 6th annual Giving Day. The incredible donations made on Giving Day elevate every student by supporting high impact areas including:

Scholarships and bursaries: Each year, donors provide over $3.2 million for student awards, bursaries and scholarships - those dollars go directly to students like you just when you need it most!

Food Security Initiatives: From making sure the Care Cupboards across campus were full, to helping create programs that address food security like NourishU, MRU donors stepped up to the plate.

Mental Wellness Supports: MRU donors and alum know that mental wellness plays a huge role in student success. Together they've supported initiatives that go beyond classrooms and regular schedules, like the After Hours Peer Support initiative.
