In the spirit of giving, Doctors for Doctors UofG will be hosting a BAKE SALE tomorrow in the UC! In Guelph, most of us are privileged to have OSAP cover most/all of our tuition fees while we are in school. Unfortunately, Nicaraguan students do not have any form of financial support, causing potential in students to be wasted. We want to break this cycle of poverty and you can help! Remember to bring some change tomorrow and be part of the movement that provides youth the ability to pursue their educational passions.
