Have you ever wanted to collect food, diapers, or supplies for a local organization but weren’t sure where to start? Join us for How to Run a Drive: From Idea to Impact; – a panel discussion with people experienced in running diaper drives (United Way of the Franklin and Hampshire Region), food drives (Amherst Survival Center), and emergency response drives (UMass member of the Olympia Fire response team). Our panelists will walk you through the process from start to finish and discuss the important role community members can play in addressing critical community needs.
The event will be held on Thursday, March 26 from 5:30 p.m. – 7 p.m. at UMass Downtown,108 North Pleasant Street. Metered parking is available in the N Pleasant Street lot behind the building. Learn more at umass.edu/downtown/about/directions.
