Your passion is the heart of Waterloo

Smiling Sharon Lamont

It was always easy for me to give my time because I so enjoyed the camaraderie of working together to achieve a goal. And it eventually became easy to be a Waterloo donor because I had a surprisingly — to me, anyway — successful career at the University.

Seeing a student I knew benefit from FSR support was really meaningful to me… I feel very strongly that education should be accessible, and this is a way to support students.
