Mission

 

To develop community co-operation and pride through volunteer driven projects aimed at assisting non-profit organizations in the Niagara Region.

 

The Many Hands Project is a student-driven renovation program executed by students in the Event Management and Construction Studies programs at Niagara College. Each year, one local non-profit organization is chosen by the Many Hands Committee to receive their assistance. Together, the students plan and execute the entire process including; completing the desired renovations, involving the community through volunteer recruitment and raising awareness for the non-profit organization. With a $0 starting budget, it is critical to make important community partners and sponsors to help with the funding of the project. This is our 18th running year of the program.
