Opportunities to get Involved (October 23th, 2006)
There are some opportunities to get involved with community volunteering at the Saratoga EOC (economic opportunities council)
Mon, Wed, Fri from 1pm -3:45pm: help at food pantry. This would involve sorting and collecting canned foods
Thurs
from 8am-11am (appr. but might run over to 11:30 sometimes so be
prepared for that): help with Extra Helpings program. This would
involve preparing and unloading from 8-9, then helping to serve and
distribute the meals to community members from 10-11.
If you
can't make any of these times but you really want to help email me your
schedule and I am sure there is something else at the EOC that you can
help with.
If there is any interest or questions about volunteering at the EOC then email amanda wirene at awirene@skidmore.edu
Projects
that are in the making: 1. going into elementary schools and promoting
nutrition awareness. 2. Putting together a holiday basket drive on
Skidmore campus to promote SNAC and give to the community. 3. set up a
"nutrition 101" session with the campus nutritionist so that we can be
more informed about what we are promoting
