UNH for One
UNH for One is a campaign to raise awareness about poverty, AIDS and education in Africa. We will be fundraising this semester for Rain for Sahel and Sahara, and the money we raise will go towards finishing a well that was started, to benefit the nomadic tribes of that region, but has yet to be finished due to lack of money. Our first event is tomorrow (Tuesday) at 7 Pm in MUB Theater 1 and we will be screening the movie "From A Deep Well" that will give an inside look into the lives of theses nomadic people and the struggles they face with lack of food, water and education. After the movie Bess Palmisciano, the founder of Rain, with be joining us to speak about the organization and what we can do to help. The movie is not very long, a half hour at the most and will only take up a bit f your time for a great cause. Then if you would like, the following day Wed. November 4th we will be hosting the actual fundraiser "Dine to Donate" at Applebee's in Dover at 5 pm. When you come to the movie on Tuesday you will receive a flyer that if you should bring with you to Applebee's and 15% of your bill will be donated to Rain. It will be a really fun time and will also be helping a really great cause! So if you're interested in learning more or just want to come for the fun of it join us on Tuesday, Wednesday or both! Hope to see you there!
