Osler
Inclusivity. Cognisance. Respect. Empathy.
Osler’s vision & mission:
Osler serves as a community away from one’s native community. We create a community where our members feel seen, represented, empowered and driven to grow as individuals. We believe in developing future leaders and laying the groundwork to create the world we wish to see.
What are we currently doing?
Osler will run a winter drive for blankets, non-perishables and socks which will be distributed to a local shelter. Spring fun day which includes planting spekbome, campus garden, flower pot painting, and eco-brick collection. Fun day for orphans and continued work on Osler's Pantry Project.
