U of L Student Breakfast program doubles last year’s goal

As final exams approach the end of the current semester for many post-secondary students, the University of Lethbridge wants to do their part to support financially stressed students struggling to feed themselves.

The university is bringing back their ‘Buy a Student a Breakfast’ campaign, where a donation of six dollars can provide a student with a free redeemable breakfast coupon on campus. The campaign, as of Friday, raised over $18,000, already doubling the total raised last year.

Donations can be made on the university’s website here. The campaign runs until Tuesday December 2nd, afterwards students will receive coupons on both Lethbridge and Calgary campuses.
