U of T Branded Clothing Available at the Free Store 

We are excited to announce that UFH has received a donation of U of T vests and long sleeve shirts in men’s and women’s sizes! These clothing items will be available to be picked up at the Free Store during its operating hours, Wednesdays 5-7pm and Saturdays 2-4pm. There is a limit of one clothing item per family, so please ask Free Store staff to assist you if interested. These items are available on a first come, first served basis while supplies last. 

There’s Nothing Like the Taste from Home 

The holidays are a time for cherished family recipes—your grandma’s famous roast, or the special cookies you bake with your siblings. These dishes are more than just food—they’re a taste of tradition, a reminder of laughter-filled meals, and the stories that bring us together. 

Now, you can share the magic of your family’s special recipe with the U of T community! 

Submit your recipe by January 3, 2025, and it could be featured in a special dinner service at the Food Services Dining Commons. If your recipe is selected, you and a friend will enjoy the dinner for free—and your recipe and story could be highlighted on our social media channels and website! 

 How to submit: 
Visit uoft.me/submit-home-recipe and include: 

  • The recipe name 
  • A full list of ingredients and instructions 
  • A story about what makes this recipe special 
  • Any photos you’d like to share 

We can’t wait to bring your family’s traditions to campus and share the taste of home with everyone.
