Besides celebrating your academic achievement, Golden Key - BYU Chapter wants to channel your energies and talents into worthwhile causes that serve the needs of our campus and our community. Together, as hundreds of highly-motivated students, armed with the Golden Key resources, we can be change makers. Our contributions may be small. But they will touch somebody's life. And that's really all that we can ask for right?
Here are two opportunities this month for you to start to get involved:
Friendship Bracelet Service Activity
We are making friendship bracelets for youth in juvenile detention centers as rewards for their participation in their support groups.
Never made one before? Don't worry, it's quick and easy and we have step-by-step diagrams for you to follow. Take a break from your busy schedule and make a gift of love and support!
When: November 11 Thursday, 6- 8 p.m. (Drop by anytime!)
Where: 3280 WSC
Refreshments will be served.
Get Out the Vote for Tipping Bucket
The Tipping Bucket launches one specific "Change the World" project at a time, in one of seven impact sectors—Community, Education, Energy, Environment, Health, Justice, Opportunity. Working alongside their partners, they use social media to guide micro-donors to their website, where donors like us can pledge as little as $1 (the default amount) to help that project get off the ground.
During November, Pepsi is sponsoring a contest in which organizations compete for a chance to win a $250,000 grant for their organization. The Tipping Bucket is asking for your support! If they win, the grant money will be used in support of dozens of global development projects around the world. You can vote up to three times a day via text, facebook, or pepsi’s website. If you would like to get an e-mail reminder to vote each day during the month of November, send your name and email address to pepsi@tippingbucket.org.
