Celebrating the Power of Philanthropy

On Tuesday December 2, 2025, the MRU Community will be celebrating our 5th annual MRU Giving Day and raising funds for the Grow Beyond Fund for Students. Together this remarkable community has raised over $1.5 million for various student impact areas, including: 

Scholarships and bursaries: Each year, donors provide over $2.4 million for student awards, bursaries and scholarships - those dollars go directly to students like you just when you need it most! (read about one of our scholarship donors who happens to be an alum here!)

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. (read about the NourishU program here!)

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. (Read about how donors are helping students thrive not just survive)
