The designated agencies are: CARE Canada, Oxfam Canada and the UN World Food Programme. “Our goal” says Rosalie Hanlon, Campaign Co-Chair, “is to raise $1 million in support of these agencies dedicated to reconstruction and development in the tsunami-affected regions. We are confident this campaign will bring students together to help rebuild the future of our world.” The campaign is a coordinated effort by several student organizations. Members include the Canadian Alliance of Student Association, Canadian Federation of Engineering Students, Meal Exchange and The Student Volunteer Program.
