About
In collaboration with Campus Dining Services, the Basic Needs Center is collecting meal swipes to fight food insecurity on campus. Anyone with a meal plan can donate one or two meal swipes. Volunteers for this event will table at various dining halls to encourage students to donate meal swipes.
Meal swipes will be collected January 30th-February 1st at the following locations:
- C4C Dining Center
- Village Center Dining
- Alferd Packer Grill
- The Alley
- Sewall Dining Center
- SEEC Café
All volunteers will be expected to attend a volunteer orientation on Monday, January 29th at 5:30pm. Please register for this shift. During this orientation, you will receive more information on your specific roles, and you can ask any questions you have before your shift. Be advised that you will not be overseen during your shift, so your attendance at orientation is essential to be aware of your responsibilities.
If you have a conflict and cannot attend orientation, you must let us know in advance. Those that do not attend orientation without notice will not be allowed to volunteer for this event.
If you have questions or concerns about this event, please email basicneeds@colorado.edu.
