There was a strong cheesy flavour coming from Watson’s eatery at St. Paul’s University College on Wednesday evening.
Congratulations to Maddi Leblanc, the ever-smiling Community Animator for GreenHouse! Maddi has been selected as one of six members of the Canadian team heading to China for World StandUp Paddleboard (SUP) Championships Nov. 23 to Dec. 2.
“It’s not about me,” says Gary Foerster, newly appointed Chair of St. Paul’s Board of Governors. “It’s about St. Paul’s and its exciting future.”
For Foerster, that exciting future is all about the vibrant student community at the College.
In 2016, while studying in Spain, Sara Velasquez met a woman whose story changed the trajectory of Sara’s life.

A big thank you to Libro Credit Union who continues to support GreenHouse from its Prosperity Fund. A fund that recognizes initiatives, which focus on regional economic development, money smarts, and youth leadership.
For Cherie Wai, it’s former St. Paul’s student Alex Foto.
Alex was a star student in the International Development (INDEV) program and a proud World Vision Youth Ambassador. Following her death in a cycling accident in August 2014, World Vision launched the #LiveLikeAlex campaign to inspire other youth to change the world.
When Chelsea Campbell heard a talk at UWaterloo about how technology can be used to for good in society, she had what she calls a ‘light bulb moment.’ The next day, an ad for GreenHouse popped up on her computer, and she knew that this was where she would go.
Historic no-hitter a big hit with Indigenous youth
Thanks to a donation from MNP LLP, a group of Indigenous youth attending the DIRECTIONS conference with the Waterloo Indigenous Student Centre (WISC) had front row seats for baseball history at Rogers Centre on May 8.
