Big Manna on Campus is BACK.
That’s right – Manna is incredibly excited to showcase our
chapters and the fabulous work they are doing, both here in the states and
abroad on site! We will be updating this blog with examples of chapter
awesomeness. If you host an event or your chapter volunteers for an amazing
local cause, send us the deets! We would love to turn the spotlight on you and
all you’re doing to make Manna all that it is!
Without further ado…here is what's happening in Athens, Georgia!
MannaUGA is off to a fantastic start this year. They are
sending FOUR trips to Manna sites abroad this March. UGA chapter members will
be spending their spring break at MPI sites in Nicaragua, Guatemala, and
Ecuador. They had so much interest, they are even sending an off site trip!
In addition to the wonderful international spring they’ve
got planned, MannaUGA has been busy right here in Georgia. The chapter recently
hosted an event on campus called the “Thrifting Extravaganza”. A local vintage
store donated clothing and accessories to the UGA chapter to aid it in raising
funds for their trips abroad. The event was a staggering success, raising funds
for the on-site projects the chapter has committed its spring break to
achieving. Its prime location on campus also spread the word about the work
MannaUGA is doing in Athens!
We are so excited for UGA to get to site this spring. We
also know that other chapters are busy spreading the word about Manna on their
university’s campus. We want to hear about it! Please email our US Coordinator,
Taylor Brown, at taylor.brown@mannaproject.org.
