UBC Giving Day is a 24-hour giving challenge that will bring faculty, staff, donors, alumni and friends together to support students like YOU!
Did you know that thousands of people contribute to your UBC experience every day? Join us to help celebrate the incredible community of donors who support students at UBC every day.
If you’re on campus on April 8, get in on the Giving Day action, which includes games, prizes, food and giveaways! Or check out The Giving Day Scavenger Hunt, taking place from April 2 to 8, for a chance to win some fabulous prizes on Giving Day.
Connect with your fellow students, learn how donors support you every day, vote for your favourite cause and say a big THANK YOU to the donors who help make UBC such an amazing place to learn, work and grow!
Join the Giving Day Scavenger Hunt
UBC Giving Day is April 8, and the scavenger hunt kicks off even earlier. Starting April 2, QR code stops go live
across UBC Vancouver and UBC Okanagan. Explore campus, scan codes at each stop, collect keywords and win prizes. The hunt runs until April 8 at 2 pm.
- Find QR codes hidden across campus
- Scan and answer trivia to unlock secret code words
- Collect as many as you can and redeem them for fun prizes at the event on April 8
- Win prizes! From Apple Airpods Pro, to Heat swag, a UBC Okanagan hoodie, cupcakes, coffee and more, every entry enters you to win our grand prizes.
Every action taken on UBC Giving Day helps make a difference—but only those who complete the hunt will claim their rewards.
Do you have what it takes? The mission begins soon. Join the celebration on April 8 from 11 am to 2 pm in the UBCO Courtyard.
