🦃✨Happy Thanksgiving Blugolds!🦃✨

 
From the Student Involvement Center

We hope your break is packed with joy, relaxation, and all the delicious food you can enjoy!

Have an amazing holiday, and we’ll see you back in December to finish the semester strong! 

Calling all Student Orgs! 🍕
Now through December 2, all student organizations are invited to participate in the Campus Harvest Food Drive—a Giving Tuesday initiative in partnership with the UW–Eau Claire Foundation! Help stock the Campus Harvest Food Pantry while showing your Blugold spirit.

Here’s how it works:
Collect food donations as a group and schedule a drop-off at the pantry on or before December 2 by contacting Sarah at snydersj@uwec.edu. Be sure to include your organization’s name and member count when you schedule and deliver! Every donated item earns points, and the organization with the highest total will win a pizza party courtesy of the Foundation.

But that’s not all! Thanks to a generous Blugold alum, each point your organization earns will also unlock a $1 donation to the Food Pantry, up to $1,000—doubling your impact!

Let’s make this the most generous Giving Tuesday yet! 💙💛
Anyone can donate, but to be eligible for prizes, your group must schedule a drop-off and follow the entry guidelines. All items must be unopened and unexpired.
