Support Seneca

Cashless Seneca

All of Seneca's services are accepting at least one form of cashless payment, which includes OneCard, debit card and/or credit card. Note: Payment methods may vary by service area and are subject to change.

Thank you for your interest in hosting a fundraising event for the Campaign for Students, Seneca’s employee giving initiative, which supports students with financial need. 

How to Host an Event/Fundraiser 

Here are the steps for creating an event and Seneca resources that are available to you.

Step 1: Choose an idea

Think about what excites you and your colleagues the most that can be done virtually or on-campus. Consider a costume contest, physical challenge, online sale, virtual game sessions, trivia parties or scavenger hunts.

Step 2: Contact the Advancement team

Please email Caterina Ventrella. We will promote your event on the Advancement & Alumni Intranet page and other communication platforms. We can also provide you with marketing materials for your event.

Step 3: Start planning

Determine What is needed for your event. Where will it be hosted, who is your audience, and how will you collect money for this fundraising initative? 

Tip

When choosing a date, find out if other events are taking place by visiting the Seneca Events calendar on Outlook. Also remember to check the Advancement & Alumni intranet space (Seneca Advancement & Alumni (senecapolytechnic.ca)

Running your event

Allow plenty of time to set up for the event before the official start time. Ensure that if you event is vitual, your technology is working smoothly. If your event is in person, arrive early to be sure you have the necessary tables, chairs and resources.

Your event will require a way to accept payment. In some cases, the Advancement team will be able to set up an online payment page for your event or be able to loan you a Moneris machine. Please email Caterina Ventrella.

Remember to take lots of pictures of smiling faces and your event volunteers. These photos will be used in the campaign highlight video and pictures of faces are the most fun to see.

You should also tweet your photos live from your event. Remember to tag @SenecaCampaign and use #SenecaGives and #SenecaProud. Your photos can be used to show the great work that has been done to raise money for students. Please email your best photos to Helen Yip
