Food for All has been organizing a Meal Swipe Drive to take place at all campus dining halls on April 5, 2022. In order to effectively collect meal swipes, we are in need of volunteers to staff tables at each location during mealtimes. I will be sending out more information on the volunteer responsibilities as the event grows closer, but basically volunteers should expect to interact with peers as they enter the dining hall, encourage them to donate a meal swipe (as they swipe in for their own meal), and answer any questions that come up. If you have any questions, please let me know and I’ll be happy to help! The link to sign up is below, feel free to sign up for more than one shift if you are able. Additionally, I will eventually be expanding this volunteer opportunity to the rest of the student body after y’all have signed up, so you are welcome to invite friends to sign up as well!

Just wanted to give everyone the opportunity to sign up for Food Pantry volunteering before it is put on Student Happenings on Monday:
Food Pantry Sign-up Sheet: Food Pantry Volunteer Sign-Up Sheet Spring 2022 – Google Sheets [editor’s note: the Spring 2022 volunteering form was moved to SignUpGenius and can be found here: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10c0e4caaa822a7fac16-spring]
Once the sign-up sheet is put on Student Happenings, it usually only takes an hour or so before all slots are filled, so sign up before Monday.
