Conexus, Cornerstone, and Synergy Credit Unions donate $150,000 to support Saskatchewan wildfire relief

The 2025 President's Cup Fundraising Classic is set for July 10, 2025, with a 1:00 PM shotgun start at the Cooke Municipal Golf Course in Prince Albert.
Organizers changed the fundraiser's focus from building a new Northern Campus to supporting First Nations wildfire recovery due to worsening fires impacting local communities.
Proceeds will assist evacuation efforts, emergency bursaries for affected FNUniv students, and provide relief for families facing trauma, displacement, property loss, and financial struggles.
Gord Hunchak, Vice President of FNUniv, acknowledged the continued importance of their initial goal but stressed the need to respond promptly when the people and communities they support are experiencing urgent difficulties.
FNUniv leadership will keep monitoring conditions and may revert to the original plan if fire situations improve significantly before the event.
