The WUSC McGill Local Committee is the club at McGill that manages the university’s Student Refugee Program (SRP), a unique program that resettles students from refugee camps to Montreal to study at McGill. As a club, we provide a year of full financial sponsorship, integration assistance, and day-to-day social and academic support for the SRP students, called scholars, as they pursue their degrees. Since the committee was formed in 1986, we have sponsored 60+ scholars as of 2022.

Just like this year, we will be welcoming 8 SRP scholars in the 2023-2024 school year. The funds we raise with this fundraiser will go towards our club funds to support our initiatives, but will especially go towards buying supplies and items for the arrivals of the next 8 SRP scholars!

Thank you so much for your support!
