Past Fund Raisers

 

In conjunction with the UW-SP Positive Psychology students we are proud to announce the following Fund Raiser lineup!  Please attend, have some fun, eat some good food, bid on some auction items, and (OK, so I am a little biased) support a wonderful cause.

Central Wisconsin Habitat for Humanity and the

Portage County Salvation Army

 

Thanks the UW-SP students of Positive Psychology, their professor Jeana Magyar-Moe, and Michele Dickinson, Wisconsin Campus Compact UWSP Service-Learning Coordinator, for their fundraising and promotional efforts last semester.

Last semester’s class raised over $6500 to be shared between the two organizations! 

This very creative class volunteered over 600 hours during the semester doing fundraising, working at both the Salvation Army and two different Habitat for Humanity work sites, building a float, and raising community awareness of both organizations.   

We especially would like to thank the 77 corporate and individual sponsors who helped the class achieve its goals by donating time, services, and products for the class’s fundraising and promotional efforts!
