Applauding generous individuals
On June 25, Ryerson celebrated exceptional volunteers at the G. Raymond Chang Outstanding Volunteer Awards. From guest lecturers, mentors and advisors to fundraisers, alumni ambassadors and event organizers, volunteers share their energy, passion and expertise with the university in many ways. The awards are named in honour of G. Raymond Chang, the late chancellor emeritus of Ryerson University and Officer of the Order of Canada, for his deep belief in the importance of volunteering.
