Monty the Change Bandit


Over the last couple of weeks the Admissions and Registrar's Office joined together to collect change as part of C100's (one of our local radio stations) fundraising efforts for Halifax's children's hospital the IWK. We ended up collecting a grand total of $566.11 just from spare change donated within the office and from the Mount students, staff and faculty who dropped in during that time!

The radio station was broadcasting live during the drop-off days of the event so Monty, our mascot, and some of our staffers decided to take the change down personally and say hello to the deejays and Liz Rigney who were hosting the event. Monty got to help out with counting the change and Wanda Mason from the Registrar's Office, spoke for him on the radio.

Great work everyone!
