Fall wellbeing events & funding

Explore upcoming wellbeing opportunities and funding at UBC Vancouver & UBC Okanagan.


Wellbeing Walks

Join a free, themed Wellbeing Walk around Vancouver and Okanagan campus. These walks are a great way to meet new people, explore the campus, have some fun, and get moving.

Vancouver highlights include the Tower Beach Walk on October 11; the Nitobe Garden Tour on October 25; and the Puppy Walk on November 8.

Plan an event for Thrive month

November is Thrive month, UBC’s annual mental health literacy campaign that offers students, faculty, and staff at UBC opportunities to explore pathways to mental health and find strategies that will help them thrive.

Help promote mental health at UBC by hosting a Thrive event. Register as a partner to receive planning support, and apply for a Thrive Grant of up to $300 by October 2.

Move UBC Grants

If you have an idea to get the UBC community moving but need funding support to make it happen, apply for a Move UBC grant.

Applications are open on a rolling basis until funds are allocated, and are open to UBC faculty, staff, students and community members.
