Since 1921, the Student Christian Movement has transformed the faith of countless students.

• Read our Friends Letter by national student representative Bre Woligroski

• Read our Movement Prayer List to offer prayer, in-kind donations and see our wish list.

Student leaders have gone on to join the World Council of Churches, the Canadian Senate, community organizations and churches across the country.

We’ve done much over the years - from student in industry workcamps to exciting conferences, international pilgrimages and solidarity summers.

But as fundamentalism and injustice flourish around the world, we need a vibrant, cutting edge ecumenical youth movement more than ever. The SCM is persistent and passionate, but needs your support.

How can you support the movement?

• Offer SCM a dependable monthly donation
• Make your offering by Credit Card
• Donate shares
• Remember SCM in Your Will: Share a legacy with students
• General donations
• Charitable Information
• Project Phoenix
• Sponsor a student to National Conference

Without our network of friends and allies, we couldn’t do our work. Our alumni and friends continue to support us because they believe in our work for justice, spirituality and community.

The SCM Canada is generously supported by alumni, or Senior Friends, by people who believe in our vision, and by religious communities and institutions. Whether you were once part of an SCM unit, or want to know what we’re up to, why not join our Friends network ?

Join our Friends Network

The Friends of SCM Network is a loosely knit group of supporters and allies of the movement.

This group is made up of both alumni (Senior Friends) and allies of the movement.

Many are alumni who support and inspire today’s members - not only through generous financial support, but on our National Board, local volunteering, and sharing their stories, songs, and prayers.

Friends of SCM contribute the majority of SCM’s funding.

The National board of directors also includes a position for a Senior Friend.

Some Senior Friends are involved in a local advisory board. Most SCM local units have an advisory board to support the students and help keep the movement stable. They are the people behind the scenes in this student-led organization. Contact us to get involved in your local advisory board
