HAPPENING TOMORROW!!!!
🚨🐊💚 GATORNATION — WE REALLY NEED YOUR HELP! 💚🐊🚨

Our next Duty-Free Lunch is coming up on Friday, October 16th from 10:55 AM–1:00 PM 🍎🥪🍽️ and we need an AMAZING group of volunteers to help make it possible! 🙌💚

✨ WHY IS THIS SO IMPORTANT? ✨
Duty-Free Lunch gives our hardworking teachers a much-needed chance to recharge, take a break, and collaborate with their colleagues while our volunteers help watch over our Gators in the cafeteria. 🐊💙💚

👩‍🏫🍎 Our teachers pour SO much into our students every single day, and this is one small way we can show them some serious Gator Love! 💚💙

🚨🚨 BUT WE CANNOT DO IT WITHOUT YOU! 🚨🚨
We truly need volunteers to help make Duty-Free Lunch possible! The more helping hands we have, the smoother lunch runs and the more meaningful this break can be for our teachers. 🙌🐊✨
