SHUFFLE 32
Friday, September 24, 2021
This year, shufflers raised an astounding $668,000 — and counting! Thank you to everyone who shuffled and donated — you are making such an important impact on the lives of Concordia students.
The Shuffle is Concordia's annual walkathon in which staff, faculty, retirees, students and alumni participate and raise funds to support our students.
Since 1990, thousands of Concordians have joined forces and raised more than $2.5 million to provide financial aid and enhance university programs and services to help our students succeed. All funds raised go towards scholarships, bursaries, resources and services.
What’s different about this year’s Shuffle?
Shuffle where you want, when you want!
Concordians typically walk the 6.5 km distance from Sir George Williams to Loyola campus together. Given that this year's Shuffle will again be virtual, we're asking Shufflers to set personal or team fitness goals to go the distance for our students. Get creative! You can walk, run, cycle, swim or even go horseback riding in a location of your choice.
Last year, former Stingers women’s hockey coach Les Lawton set a personal goal to walk 100 km in one week and raised an incredible $13,940 in the process! The CU at the Top team ran up Mont-Royal and raised more than $20,000 for the Black Perspectives Office.
Whatever you do, share your pictures or videos with us on social media using the #CUShuffle or by email at shuffle@concordia.ca.
Gifts to the Shuffle count toward the Campaign for Concordia, which supports the university’s nine strategic directions and ensures a bright future for both our students and our university.
