Schreiner Shack-a-Thon: Have fun
doing good |
|
Schreiner University’s annual Shack-a-Thon will be Friday, Sept. 10,
in the campus free speech zone between the dining hall and the Floyd &
Kathleen Cailloux Campus Activity Center. Student organizations will
construct cardboard shacks in which at least one student will be present
from 3-9 p.m. During that time, the public is invited to visit and donate
money to the “panhandlers.” Students also can raise funds from other members
of their organizations, bake sales and other fundraisers, and sponsorships.
There will be a movie among the shacks at 9 p.m., and students are
encouraged to bring card and board games, guitars and sleeping bags.
All proceeds will go to Habitat for Humanity. On Saturday, Sept. 11, the
students will volunteer helping Habitat build a new home.
Shack-a-Thon is a joint venture of the Student Volunteer Center, the Student
Activities Board and Phi Delta Theta. There will be sign-up sheets in the
Student Volunteer Center on the first floor of CCAC for groups that want to
participate in the event. Shack locations will be determined by lottery. The
deadline for volunteering to work on the Habitat house is Wednesday, Sept.
8.
For more information, call or e-mail Elizabeth Loggie, volunteer coordinator
at 792-7211 or
ehloggie@schreiner.edu.
