Provost Benoit-Antoine Bacon serves up pasta to Suzanne Downs, part-time faculty coordinator, with the help of Graham Carr, Concordia’s vice-president of Research and Graduate Studies.
The samosas sell for $1 each and can be eaten on the go, or frozen and re-heated for guests over the holidays. Order them now from Nancy Curran of Hospitality Concordia at nancy.curran@concordia.ca or just stroll through the atrium of the Engineering, Computer Science and Visual Arts Integrated Complex (1515 Ste-Catherine St. W.) on December 16.
In the long term, the best way to contribute to Concordia’s campaign is through payroll deductions. A few dollars from each pay cycle can make a big difference in the lives of the Montrealers Centraide supports.
Centraide gives $0.87 on the dollar to the agencies it works with, and evaluates all 370 of them to ensure that the funds are being properly managed. Moneysense gave Centraide of Greater Montreal an A grade, so you can trust that donations are going where they’re needed. The agencies deal with a range of problems, from poverty to social exclusion.
