Giving Tuesday



SHOW YOUR ACADIA SPIRIT THIS GIVING TUESDAY

This Giving Tuesday (December 2), let’s come together as an alumni community to support food security for our students. Here are the ways that you can get involved in campaigns all November long.

Giving Tuesday Matching Campaign

From now until December 2, all donations to the ASU Food Cupboard will be matched dollar for dollar by the J&W Murphy Foundation. Your support ensure that no student goes hungry.

Consider giving just $25, which can help purchase essential groceries, such as bread, milk, eggs, fruit, and pasta for a student in need.

Every dollar helps make food security a reality on our campus. Donate here.

ARE YOU A LOCAL ALUMNI? Here’s How You Can Support Locally!

Food Drive

Visit us in Alumni Hall (512 Main Street) and drop-off any non-perishable food items and basic hygiene items in support of the ASU Food Cupboard.

Every item donated, will be given to the ASU Food Cupboard to support students who are in need most.

Dining Hall Tuesdays for the ASU Food Cupboard

If you live or work in the Wolfville area, consider dining for a cause every Tuesday leading up to Giving Tuesday! We encourage you to enjoy breakfast, lunch, or dinner at Wheelock Dining Hall on Tuesday and give back with every meal.

All Wheelock Dining Hall door sales on Tuesdays from now until December 2 will be donated to the ASU Food Cupboard, supporting students facing food insecurity.

Thanks to the J&W Murphy Foundation, all proceed will be matched doubling your impact.
