Faculty and Staff giving
Each year, more than 350 SFU faculty and staff members go above and beyond in their commitment to the university and its students. They show that SFU is not just a place to work, but a place where incredible change can happen—and that we can all play a critical role in that change.
As an SFU faculty or staff member, you can make bi-weekly contributions through your pay cheque; your contributions will be noted on your annual T4 slip, making it a very convenient way to donate and track your giving.
Join us in addressing global challenges and breaking barriers for students. Make each payday count even more by giving where it matters.
To set up giving through your pay cheque, please fill out the payroll giving form.
Let's connect!
If you have any questions, please email us at annual_giving@sfu.ca or call 778-782-7250.
