***POETRY EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED!***
Hey everyone,
I have to unfortunately cancel the poetry reading because I'm still under the weather and feel like getting worse. I don't think it would be great to have a poetry reading in which I may cause others to get sick too. I will try again to have another poetry reading sometime in April. Thanks again for your support.

Campaign Against Hunger & Homelessness
Background Info: In San Diego County alone there are 10,000 homeless men, women, and children. There are 800 chronically homeless TEENS. There are over 500 homeless FAMILIES, of which half are single moms.
With the recession, demands on shelters have increased significantly, and at the same time, funding and assistance has decreased dramatically.
That's what we're fighting against.
Our Hunger Cleanup day is benefitting the San Diego Rescue Mission which is a non-profit, non-government agency that serves the abused, addicted, and homeless people of San Diego. They do not accept money from the gov't- so their programs are privately funded through donations.
You can find out more about them at www.sdrecue.org.
On April 18, 2009, students from SDSU, SWCC, etc. will get together and volunteer for the Rescue Mission located at 5150 University Ave. from 10am-2pm.
All volunteers should register at www.hungercleanup.org, and click on "Register to volunteer with your local hunger clean up," and pick SDSU, and join an existing team- "Aztecs Against Hunger."
Through this website, volunteers will be able to collect donations from sponsors that wish to donate with a credit card. All donations are tax deductible because the National Student Campaign Against Hunger and Homelessness is a non-profit org. Their website is: www.studentsagainsthunger.org.
Our goal for each volunteer is to raise $50 in sponsorships. This is a GOAL- not a limitation or expectation. Half of all the money raised will go to the San Diego Rescue Mission, and the other half will go to the NSCAHH- which helps fund national agencies and international programs as well.
SLEEPLESS SAN DIEGO: http://sleeplesssandiego.kintera.org
When: May 2 @ 3:00pm- May 3 @ 7:00am
This is the 3rd annual SSD, which is run by the SD Rescue Mission. The purpose of this event is to raise awareness and support for the 10,000 homeless people of SD. Participants get sponsored to enjoy a night of performances with fellow residents.
Deborah Williams is the volunteer coordinator for the Mission. She is looking for 300 volunteers for this specific event and can be contacted at dwilliams@sdrescue.org. Volunteer shifts are 4 hours long and include: greeting, parking assistance, setting up, cleaning up.
Contact Deborah for more info. (She's a sweet lady!)
I will provide information for other events as they come up. If anyone has any suggestions or questions feel free to contact me!
Thanks!
