McGill staff members who donate to the University’s 2026 Centraide campaign via payroll deductions will be automatically entered into a draw for one of two grand prizes:
- Two nights in a double occupancy room at the Fairmont Tremblant in Mont-Tremblant, QC. Generously sponsored by Fairmont Tremblant. Certain restrictions apply.
- Two round-trip promotional Air Canada tickets for travel to any destination of Air Canada’s global network, with up to $8,800 maximum value. Generously sponsored by Air Canada. Certain restrictions apply.
Each prize will be raffled off to a McGill employee who donates to Centraide via payroll deductions by Dec. 11. New and existing McGill payroll donors will all be entered to win!
A monthly payroll deduction is the most sustainable way to make a difference; your donation will be spread out evenly over 26 pay cycles.
Emissions associated with air travel will be offset through Centre Planetair, a McGill partner. Planetair is a Quebec-based non-profit organization that maintains a portfolio of projects certified under the Gold Standard. Visit the McGill Sustainability website for sustainable travel tips.
