Happy Sunday! We hope that you all get to enjoy the beautiful weather today.
We have some announcements as follows:
- Our general body meeting will be this Thursday on the Sunken Gardens at 7.
- We have also been selected to compete in IMPACT WEEK!!! With this, we will be competing amongst other student organizations on campus for various funding amounts of $2500, $1500, or $1000!!! Our goal is to win (obviously) so that we can use these funds to purchase a commercial fridge for the food exchange.
But we need all of your help. Please sign up to help us table at Sadler from March 21-25.

Please come to our meeting this Thursday to learn more about impact week, how to help us win votes, and to make this effort a success. This is a huge opportunity for us.

Meal Swipe Volunteers Needed
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!
