View individual cards on the Big Box Fundraising website.
Orders will be taken until November 15 and available in time for holiday gifting!

Gift Card fundraiser
NC’s United Way committee and NCSAC are also teaming up to raise funds for two important causes – United Way Niagara and Nourishing Minds.
Until November 30, you can purchase a gift card at The Shack (Welland Campus) or The Undergrounds (Daniel J. Patterson Campus). Choose the amount you’d like to load on the card and funds will be split equally between United Way Niagara and Nourishing Minds.
With every gift card purchase, you will receive the full dollar amount, one-time complimentary coffee or tea and an Undergrounds travel cup.
