About Columbia College

Established in 1936, Columbia College proudly serves as one of Canada’s longest established international not-for-profit colleges. Funds raised in the Ride for Refuge will be targeted towards our Student Refugee Program. Our Vision is an inclusive society where students can access the education of their choice. The Ride for Refuge will enable us to support youth who are displaced or fleeing conflict regions to relaunch their educational journey.


Responding to the wave of Syrian Refugees arriving in Canada in 2016, Columbia College introduced Bursaries under our Student Refugee Program to help remove financial barriers to students with Refugee Backgrounds. Students in this program currently come from various conflict regions like Syria, Yemen, Iraq, Iran, Burundi, Myanmar, Ethiopia, and have carved a new path to leading Universities in Canada. They have achieved monumental success in re-launching their educational journey.


Unfortunately, forced displacement is still one of the most powerful trends impacting youth around the globe. In 2019 there were over 79 million people worldwide who were forcibly displaced. Access to education remains as one of the main barriers refugee youth experience over their lifetime.


In this environment, building on our success, the College has committed to expanding supports available for youth and aspiring students who have been forcibly displaced. With your support we can equip more youth from around the world to restart their education and begin a pathway to becoming successful leaders in the workforce of tomorrow.
