Hello Food For All,

We have two ways to engage with Food For All this week: our table in the Sadler Atrium today and our chill general body meeting tomorrow.

Dining Staff Appreciation Tabling: Today is National Random Acts of Kindness Day! We will be tabling in the Sadler Atrium from 11:00am – 2:00pm encouraging students to sign a banner thanking dining hall workers. You can sign up to table here. If you’re just passing through, consider taking a moment to find us and sign!

General Body Meeting: Tomorrow, February 18^th at 7:00pm, we will be meeting in Chancellors 123 to chat about fun activities you can do to learn more about or support non-profits!

Spring Break Staycation: Wesley and Food For All are teaming up to provide food, service opportunities, and fun activities to folks staying over Spring Break! If you are interested, fill out this form so that we can get a vague estimate of numbers. You can come to as much or as little as you would like. Additionally, reply to this email or send a GroupMe DM to an exec member if you want to get involved in coordinating/running the event!

Have questions or suggestions about what events we should run this semester? Feel free to reply to this email! We hope to see you at our table today or our meeting tomorrow!
