The Sabo Center’s Campus Kitchen program invites you to support our 2022 <\/span>Giv<\/a>e<\/a> to the Max fundraiser<\/a>. This year, we are raising funds for two important initiatives: The <\/span>Augsburg Campus Cupboard and food access programming in Cedar-Riverside.<\/p>\n

First, the Campus Cupboard provides free groceries to Augsburg students.\u00a0Campus Cupboard use has rapidly expanded in the last three years, in response to increased food insecurity among Augsburg\u2019s diverse student population. In 2019, an average of 50 students visited the Campus Cupboard to pick up free groceries each week. By September 2022, that average increased to 220 students per week. We regularly receive feedback from our students that the groceries we provide make a huge difference in their ability to access high-quality, healthy foods. Many students and their families now see this service as a critical piece of meeting their basic food needs.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In order to expand this work, we are raising funds to purchase <\/span>culturally appropriate food items for our diverse student population. With your support we will be able to offer a wider variety of foods, providing our students with the specific staple foods they request regularly.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Second, we are seeking support for our food access and education work in our surrounding community of Cedar-Riverside. The Campus Kitchen program provides free meals, fresh produce, and cooking programming for our neighbors in Cedar-Riverside. A $60 donation covers supplies needed for one cooking class for neighborhood youth. Your donation will make a significant difference in our ability to meet the growing and diverse food needs of Augsburg\u2019s student body and our neighbors in Cedar-Riverside.<\/p>\n

Please support this work with a donation here.<\/a><\/p>\n

Thank you for your generosity.<\/p>\n
