2012 - 2013 Report to Donors 2012 - 2013 REPORT TO DONORS www.uregina.ca PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE At the University of Regina, two of the most heartfelt words we can say to our donors are also the simplest: “Thank you.” Your support ensures that our students have access to learning opportunities that enable them to make a difference in their families, their local communities, and our world. The scholarships and bursaries you create, as well as the investments you make in our programs, research and facilities, have a profound impact on our University. You inspire and empower us to reach for more and to realize our shared potential. Our deepest gratitude is best conveyed through the words of our students who are featured in this report. I encourage you to see and hear from the students themselves by visiting www.uregina.ca/ external/donor-relations/donor-report/. Dr. Vianne Timmons, President and Vice-Chancellor FAMILY CAMPAIGN It is often said that generosity begins at home. The University of Regina’s College Avenue campus is a place where people have come together to share knowledge and realize dreams for more than a century. Its revitalization as a hub of learning and culture is the number one capital fundraising priority for the University. University of Regina faculty, staff, members of the Board of Governors, Senate, Crown Trustees and retirees – otherwise known as the University family – have contributed more than $815,000 in support of the University as part of Building Knowledge – The College Avenue Campus Renewal Project. “Everyone who has contributed to the Family Campaign has demonstrated their commitment to the education we provide to our students and set a strong example for others,” Dr. Vianne Timmons, President and Vice-Chancellor.

SCHMALZ BURSARY FOR VOICE Donor support is very important for U of R students. I am fortunate to be a recipient of scholarships as I haven’t had to take out any student loans, and I have been provided the opportunity to experience something special here at the U of R. All of the words in the world cannot express my true gratitude. To all of the donors, I want to say “Thank you!” JORDAN SEITZ CAMPUS FOR ALL, CENTRE FOR STUDENT ACCESSIBILITY SASKTEL HAS PROVIDED SUPPORT TO ENHANCE CAMPUS FOR ALL.

Thank you. KAYLEE PUCHALA BACHELOR OF APPLIED SCIENCE, MAJOR IN ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS ENGINEERING, ‘13 REGINA ENGINEERING SOCIETY SCHOLARSHIPS ERNESTO G. PARAISO JR. SCHOLARSHIP IN ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS ENGINEERING What I really liked about the University of Regina, in addition to its studies, is its approach to a well balanced student perspective; it has so much to offer. What I would really like to say to the donors is “Thank you”, even though that alone doesn’t convey the gratitude I have for donors.

The GPAZ is a non-profit organization with members from industry, provincial and municipal governments, environmental groups and the general public from within the region. The support from its members and dedication of its Board continue to make the GPAZ and the data it produces of the highest quality. GPAZ thanks former Executive Director Stephen Weiss for his excellent work in leading several major accomplishments including the successful commissioning of new monitoring stations and significant improvements in the Board Bylaws. I am honoured to be the new Executive Director and will strive to continue the success that GPAZ has come to expect. The Board also saw transition with a new Chair, Kendi Young (CCRL Refinery Complex) and new Secretary/Treasurer Jim Elliot (Saskatchewan Econetwork) being elected to work along with Robert Schutzman (Evraz) continuing to serve as Vice-Chair. Each year there is more understanding and awareness of the health risks related to poor air quality in contributing to a variety of illnesses, especially those related to heart and lungs. Pollutants with the strongest evidence for public health concern include particulate matter (PM), ozone (O3), nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and sulphur dioxide (SO2).

    ANNUAL REPORT 2020/2021 2 0 2 0 / 2 0 2 1 A N N U A L R E P O R T MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR The work of Regina Food Bank is critical to Regina’s support of those facing food insecurity since its’ founding almost 40 years ago. In those many decades we have never faced a crisis like COVID-19. The activities of Regina Food Bank extend beyond the critical service of procuring, receiving, handling, and distributing thousands of pounds of food a year. Our mission is to serve those most vulnerable in our community by providing programs and service directly and through partnerships in the areas of food provision, essential skills development and connections to community supports and opportunities. None of this is possible without our donors, sponsors, community investment partners, and volunteers, and for that, on behalf of the Board I would like to offer our most heartful thank you for supporting our mission. We cannot do what we do without all of you. Your Regina Food Bank Board of Directors is responsible for the strategic direction and overseeing operations. We work together in alignment with leadership to deliver our vision, mission, values, and strategic priorities for Regina Food Bank. During a time of unprecedented change, I am happy to report that we enter 2021-2022 having progressed in this work. As I enter my role as Board Chair, I would like to thank my Board colleagues for their hard work and dedication, especially during this last year. As a board, we can support growth opportunities and empower progressive strategic priorities to best address the ever-changing face of food insecurity in our city.
