UBC Giving Day: Support the PIE Student Fund and enjoy pie 🥧 🍕


DATE
Thursday April 3, 2025
TIME
3:00 PM - 4:30 PM

Celebrate UBC Giving Day with us on April 3.

The Psychology Inclusive Excellence (PIE) Student Fund is a featured Giving Day fund. Join us in championing diversity and inclusion in our community by making a gift to the PIE Fund. Your gift empowers psychology undergraduate and graduate students from historically marginalized and equity-deserving communities by providing paid research positions in our labs. 

Join us for PIE on Giving Day!

We’re serving free pie to celebrate Giving Day and the PIE Fund! From Apple 🥧 to Za 🍕, we’ve got pie for every craving!

Join us in the Suedfeld Lounge, Kenny room 2510, from 3:00 – 4:30 pm to enjoy pie, meet our Giving Day champions‚ and donate if you can.

The PIE Fund directly supports initiatives such as:

  • Early Research Awards and PSYC 240 Tuition Awards to support early research training for undergrad researchers who face obstacles to working in a research lab.
  • Entrance Enhancement Awards help recruit outstanding graduate students from diverse backgrounds, paving the way for inclusive excellence in psychology.

Challenge accepted!

Your donation on April 3 will be boosted by our matching and challenge funds, unlocking even more support for our students: 

🔓 Double Match: The first $10,000 in donations to the PIE Fund on April 3 will be double-matched. That means your gift of $25 becomes $75!

🔓 Donor Challenge: When 25 donors give to the PIE Fund on April 3, a gift of $10,000 from psychology faculty will be unlocked.

🔓 Alumni Challenge: When 10 UBC alumni give to the PIE Fund on April 3, a gift of $2,500 will be unlocked.

A small donation can make a big difference! With your generosity, we can expand access to research opportunities and build a strong network of emerging scholars.  

Every contribution counts! Please join us this Giving Day to open doors for deeper learning—uplifting equity-deserving communities one student success story at a time.
