Sponsor a Campaign
The Catholic Chaplaincy at York hopes to provide a variety of different experiences for the upcoming leaders of tomorrow. There are many different events and initiatives that need an abundance of financial aid and assistance for. Students are often cash-strapped, especially in these times, so CCY is able to provide for food, retreat assistance, special programming and spiritual growth books and materials.
Provide For Study Resources
The Catholic Chaplaincy at York would not be able to survive without a regular flow of books and spiritual reading that can be provided for the students. Students are hungry to learn about the big questions of life, none which is bigger than the question of Jesus, God, the Sacraments and what it means to live in a community of love, service and gospel mission to a world in desperate need of all three.
Provide For Retreats
Students will regularly find the biggest growth in the whole semester from one of the Catholic Chaplaincy at York’s semesterly retreats. These retreats allow students to spend a good chunk of time learning about relevant talks, spend time with many of their fellow students, partake in the Sacraments, get one-on-one counseling and spiritual direction, and much more.
Provide Food For Events
Feeding students is one of the major aspects of almost all of our events. Food is at an all time high for students on campus, and the food outlets on campus are often very expensive-to-over-priced. By providing food at special events CCY is able to help students out in a very practical and healthy way. Jesus also fed people their physical needs as he fed them spiritually.
Help Fund Events For International Students
About 1 in every 5 York students is an international student. That is about 10,000-11,000 international students. By providing resources for this initiative you are able to help us cater to needs of East and South Asian, Middle Eastern, African and Latin American and European students who have come to Canada’s second largest full-time enrolled university. This helps your money stretch around the world and reach every continent.
