We have a goal of fundraising $950 to put together 24 bags including backpacks, clothes, toiletries, bath supplies, books and toys for children in the foster care system. Since most kids have to leave their homes quickly, most have very few belongings; this gives them a chance to start new with some personal belongings at their new home. We are asking you to share the GoFundMe link on any and all social media platforms you have -- if you share the link, we will give you 1 service hour for every social media platform you post on (max of 3). We will be using the money to order everything off Amazon and Walmart to put together the bags. https://www.gofundme.com/f/erie-foster-bag-drive?utm_source=customer&utm_medium=copy_link&utm_campaign=p_cf+share-flow-1

She will do activities with the students and discuss techniques for managing emotions during a stressful time. We would like to use part of our budget to offer students a gift card for lunch if they participate in this workshop. This would be to help take the place of the student breakfasts that were previously offered to students but have not been due to the pandemic. We also recognize that this request is not greater than 30 days prior to the event, but we will not need any LECOM spaces to host the event and the speaker has agreed to present on this date so we are hopeful that we can get this event approved and give students this opportunity to work on stress management techniques going forward.
