Welcome back Flames!

SNA is kicking off the semester with a community fundraiser in collaboration with IMAN Food and Wellness Center! SNA has volunteered with IMAN in the past and we noticed the amazing efforts and contributions they provide for the community. From partnering with the Greater Chicago Food Depository to distribute food to those in need, to growing and harvesting their own produce, IMAN has worked very hard to help the community. Our goal is to raise $2,000 to provide 3 months worth of fresh produce and a tent for clients during inclement weather.

The fundraiser starts today and will last until February 9th! Donate by clicking the link in our LinkTree to donate to our Facebook Fundraising page or by visiting us at our tabling events at AHS or SCE. You can also help out by sharing this post with your friends and family and spreading the word about the fundraiser.

Join us in supporting IMAN as we strive to increase access to fresh produce for our community! Together, let’s make a difference in promoting health and well-being.
