PGPIRG

Looking to try something new? Meet new people? Get involved?

PGPIRG has many different ways to get involved, but there is definitely a need for volunteers now that school is back in session and our summer students are no longer with us! Listed below are some great opportunities, and the contact information should you wish to get involved.

1. COMPOST! We’re looking for two-three volunteers to collect compost from the Green Bins around campus, and move them to the hopper. This must happen everyday, Mon-Fri, between 2-4. Call or e-mail PGPIRG at (250) 960-7474, pgpirg@unbc.ca to sign up or get more information.

2. UNIVERSITY FARMERS’ MARKET! It’s a weekly event on campus, for the first time ever! Volunteers are needed to help set up/take down the market (a unique chance to meet and chat with the vendors themselves), as well as manning tables, and other exciting tasks. Contact ufm@unbc.ca for more information.

3. GOOD FOOD BOX! Short of time, but still wanting to be involved? Not a problem. The Good Food Box is delivered the second Thursday of every month, and required just an hour or two of your time to help get everything sorted and ready to go. Contact our Food Coordinator, Addie Houlberg, for more information: (250) 960-7474, pgpirg@unbc.ca (attn: Addie).
