Welcome to our 2020 Helping Hands Helper campaign! This year you can help out and be a Holiday Helper by signing out tickets to shop for gifts for NorQuest students in need.

If you are a 2020 Fall NorQuest student trying to register for the Helping Hands campaign, please click here.

This year staff and faculty can also show their team spirit by shopping or donating on behalf of TEAM NORMA or TEAM JILL. Independent helpers are also welcome!

Gift Buying

Students have signed up for gifts for themselves and/or their children in the categories shown below. As students sign up we will update the number of shopping tickets available to be claimed in each category. You can sign out the age range and gift types that appeal to you the most at the bottom of this page. Helpers are asked to shop for gifts of approximately $20 value each. Feel free to sign up for as many tickets as you want!

The deadline to sign out tickets is Mon, Nov 30 at 4 pm.

Gift Drop off

Once you’ve purchased your gifts, please drop them off, unwrapped, in the bin located in Imagine Hall no later than Tue, Dec 1. To ensure that we get the gift to the correct person, please tape a note to each present with your name and the age/category it’s for.

Donations

Not able to shop but still want to help out? No problem! SANQC is accepting donations electronically. Please send an e-transfer to sanqc.helpinghands@norquest.ca and remember to include which team you’re donating on behalf of (Norma, Jill or Independent). Please note that SANQC is unable to issue tax receipts for any donations.
