I’m sure you remember the feeling you had stepping into Canterbury House during your time at Michigan Tech. The warmth of the space, the welcoming faces, and the sense of belonging that wrapped around you like a comforting hug. Canterbury House wasn’t just a building, it was a refuge, a place where you could be yourself, connect with others, and feel truly seen and valued.

For so many, Canterbury House is a first home away from home, a place where friendships are formed over Wednesday night meals, where students struggling with homesickness or cultural adjustment find community, and where everyone, regardless of background, feels respected and included.

As you think back on those moments of laughter, support, and inspiration, know that Canterbury House continues to provide that same welcoming space for the next generation of Michigan Tech students and families. And just like when you were there, we’re doing everything we can to serve as a beacon of hope and inclusivity in the midst of a challenging world.

Now, we need your help to ensure that this special place can grow and continue to impact lives for years to come. Your support will help us expand our programs, provide vital resources to those in need, and create even more opportunities for connection and care.

We invite you to join us in carrying forward the spirit of Canterbury House. Together, we can ensure that every person who walks through our doors experiences that same unforgettable feeling of belonging that you did.

Thank you for being part of this journey and for helping us make Canterbury House a home for all.

With gratitude,

Rick & The Canterbury House Team
