If you have not yet made a donation to UCC this year — it’s not too late. 

Did you know? Tuition covers approximately three quarters of our annual expenditures, so donations go a long way in helping us deliver transformational learning experiences to our students. 

When you donate, you will receive an income tax receipt for 2023. To qualify for a tax receipt, please note:

1. Donations received by mail must be postmarked on or before December 31, 2023.

2. Stock donations need to be received by our broker's associate Deanna Zuik, on or before Friday, Dec. 22, 2023. You can access the stock transfer form here.

3. Donations can be made online at giving.ucc.on.ca to receive a Canadian tax receipt or at ucc.on.ca/usgiving for all international gifts, on or before midnight (EST) on Sunday, Dec. 31, 2023.

If you have any questions or would like more information on how you can support Upper Canada College, please contact Erin Jones at ejones@ucc.on.ca or 416-488-1125 ext. 2023 for assistance.

As we prepare for special getaways or gatherings with family and friends, we wanted to send a friendly reminder to stay safe and healthy this holiday season.

In the event that you get sick or injured, here is some guidance while you are away from school:

• Toronto Public Health has shared important information for parents on staying healthy this holiday season. 

• If you hit your head or have any other injury that will impact your schooling, make sure to notify the Health Centre by email or visit us on your return. Please see this letter to parents, which includes UCC's concussion policy. Any questions or updates can always be directed to the UCC Health Centre.

We hope you have an amazing time off and enjoy some much deserved rest.
