Through their years of research, teaching and service, UBC professors can make an invaluable impact on the lives of students, alumni and colleagues and in our local and global communities.

But when professors transition to retirement, their lifelong academic journey and connection to UBC does not need to end.

This Giving Day, help UBC continue to grow a robust, dedicated community of emeriti with a gift to the UBC Emeritus College.

The first of its kind in Canada, the college provides emeritus professors with a multitude of ways to continue participating in the vibrant, intellectual life of UBC.

Comprised of over 1,880 members, the college is an active community of peers that encourages social engagement and promotes healthy aging among professors.

Retirement can be a rewarding continuation of purposeful living. Your support will help ensure the college remains an integral part of academic life at UBC and that emeriti—today and in the future—thrive. Give today!
