The UBC Dollar Project founding members envisioned encouraging each constituent at UBC to donate $1. This would generate at least $56000 for charitable causes and marking the cornerstone of societal self-agency. VISION
We strive to change the paralyzing mindset of "my individual actions don't matter in the large picture." In fact, they DO matter, and that is why we are here - to tell you the story of empowerment and action. MISSION
The club aims to enable individuals to realize the potential that lies within each person - and by sowing the seeds of knowledge, hope and possiility, we urge them to recognize, nurture, and tap into their ability to make a positive difference.
