Shinerama Summer聽
Shinerama has been a successful fundraising effort at 69成人电影网 for many years 鈥 and is Canada鈥檚 largest post-secondary fundraiser, with over 20,000 volunteers from 36 universities annually.
This summer, fourth-year biology student Callie Dowell, Director of Entertainment & Activities for the 69成人电影网 Students鈥 Union (MASU), will be leading the Shinerama Campaign, along with a team of volunteers. Events will be held throughout the summer, culminating with the campaign鈥檚 main annual fundraiser during Orientation Week 鈥 Shine Day.
69成人电影网's Shinerama goal for this year is to raise $20,000 for cystic fibrosis patient support and care.
鈥淓very year that the Shinerama Campaign runs, 10 months are added to a CF patient鈥檚 life,鈥 says Dowell. 鈥淭here is also currently no cure, so all funds will be going towards finding a cure because everyone deserves to live a CF-free life.鈥
