We are always hopeful that the holidays are a time of celebration for individuals and
families, but the reality is it can be a large financial struggle for some. The stress of
making sure that there is a meal on the table and gifts under the tree can be very hard
and this is where Project Red comes in. Project Red, which is ran by the Assiniboine
Community Students’ Association (ACCSA) in partnership with the Assiniboine
Community College Foundation, steps up and hopes we can provide a little bit of ease to
our students’ mind during the holiday season.

For the 2023 holiday season, the ACCSA will be providing students with a gift card to
purchase your own holiday meal. You will have the choice to get a gift card from
Heritage CO-OP, Superstore, or Walmart (please indicate your choice on the form). We
are hoping to be able to add some extra little goodies to the hampers as well.
Gift cards will be provided to students during the week of December 11-14.

Sincerely,
the ACCSA Staff
