Come and join us for food, fellowship and networking on April 02, 2026 at the historic HMCS York in Toronto.
F.A.S.T. Rescue is proud to announce the Forward Fundraiser & Networking Evening on Thursday, April 2, 2026. This is our first fundraising event in support of students in the Toronto Metropolitan University Occupational Health & Safety Graduate Program. The event aims to raise money through sponsorships, attendance, while engaging industry partners, community members, and supporters who share a commitment to workplace health, safety, and service.
The aim is to pay it forward and support students of colour (Black and racialized), Indigenous students, first-generation students, and/or newcomers to Canada who may face additional systemic or financial barriers to post-secondary education. At the same time, the intent of the award is inclusive and student-centered, recognizing that barriers to education can take many forms and that improving access to learning strengthens the health and safety profession as a whole. The F.A.S.T. Rescue team is proud to introduce this bursary, as the TMU OHS program is closely aligned with the shared commitment to developing safety professionals dedicated to keeping Canadian workplaces safe, healthy, diverse, and resilient.
This project is important to F.A.S.T. Rescue because it directly supports the development of future OHS leaders while reinforcing the organization’s role as a committed partner in education, equity, and community impact. By investing in students today, F.A.S.T. Rescue is moving the OHS industry forward, contributing to a stronger, more knowledgeable safety workforce—forwarding prevention, professionalism, and culture across Canadian workplaces.
