Study for Zach!!

Each night (4/21 – 4/24) we will have the basement available for students to study between the hours of 7 PM – 11 PM.  You can log your hours each night.  Students who study the most individual hours will earn some really amazing prizes. 

So why is it called Study for Zach?  Zach is a seven-year-old boy in Lexington who suffers from a degenerative disease called Progeria.  During this week, we will also be simultaneously collecting donations for Progeria Research!  The floor that raises the most money will win a catered party!  We raised $2000 last year, and hope to raise more this year. 

You can earn one Wired event for each two hours of studying!!

Seedleaf and the Center for Community Outreach Highlights Campaign

Come hear Laura Greenfield, Wired Peer Mentor, and Director of Promotions for UK's Center for Community Outreach talk about Seedleaf and the Center for Community Outreach's Highlights Campaign.  Laura says:

"I am the director of promotions in the Center for Community Outreach and something we are working on this spring is a Highlight Campaign with the Lexington community garden organization, Seedleaf. The aim of the campaign is to help increase Seedleaf's on-campus presence by hosting talks that will share information about food insecurity in Lexington, what Seedleaf is and what they're doing to combat food insecurity, and how students can get involved! Seedleaf's gardens are less than a mile from campus and, with spring hopefully on the way soon, I can't wait for UK students to hear about all these great opportunities for community outreach and involvement."
