On April 5, members of the St. Paul's community gathered on the green to break ground on an exciting expansion that has been in development for several years.
The new space will feature a 2,500 square foot dedicated space for the St. Paul's GreenHouse social impact incubator, a large multipurpose community room for all students to share, an expanded Watson's Eatery and 70 new single rooms that will have private bathrooms and a kitchenette on each floor.
Announcing the $500,000 Shape the World Campaign
Thanks to a number of generous alumni and friends the campaign is off to an incredible star with more than $325,000 already pledged!
On hand for the ceremony were several alumni, including Bill Watson, University of Waterloo Board Chair, who said, "As a proud St. Paul's and Waterloo alumnus, I couldn't be more pleased with the commitment and investment that this building represents. The GreenHouse program in social entrepreneurship entirely aligns with the spirit of innovation and entrepreneurship that pervades the ecosystem here at Waterloo."
