The program brought together 20 university students for an enjoyable afternoon of friendship, conversation, and community connection. In the welcoming outdoor atmosphere of the GRFS garden, participants had the opportunity to spend quality time together, strengthen friendships, and build a stronger sense of belonging.

This gathering was more than a social activity. It created a supportive space where students could connect, relax, share meaningful conversations, and enjoy being part of a caring community.

GRFS sincerely thanks the Mentorship Team, volunteers, and all participants who contributed to making this program a warm, joyful, and memorable experience.

At GRFS, we are proud to support university students through mentorship, friendship, guidance, and community-building opportunities that help young people feel connected, supported, and valued.

If you’re a student at the University of Waterloo, stop by the Conrad Grebel atrium to grab a goodie bag filled with snacks and treats to help you stay focused, energized, and motivated as you prepare for finals. Whether you’re burning the midnight oil or just need a small pick-me-up between study sessions, we’ve got your back.

These care packages are a small reminder that you’re not alone—we see your hard work, and we’re cheering you on. Every snack packed was done with thought, care, and the spirit of community. It’s our way of showing that even the smallest act of kindness can have a big impact, especially during busy times like this.

Take a moment to pause, grab a bag, and remember: you are capable, you are resilient, and you will get through this.

Because at GRFS, we believe love isn’t just something we say—it’s something we do.

Love is a verb.
