Project Red is an annual holiday campaign put on by the ACC Students’ Association in collaboration with the Assiniboine Community College Foundation. The purpose of Project Red is to ensure that all ACC students are supported during the holidays in the form of a holiday hamper. With inflation and the cost of food rising, the Students’ Association has seen an overwhelming response of hamper applicants compared to last year, which is why we need your support for this initiative.
We are hopeful that you will consider donating to Project Red so that we can help all students who are in need this holiday season. We will be accepting donations until Tuesday, November 28th.
You can use this link to make a donation directly towards the Project Red Program.
