Southern Oregon University Students Hosting Fundraisers

When Southern Oregon University Professor Emily Reeder reached out about her students hosting fundraisers, I wasn’t sure what the class had in mind. We sat down together via Zoom and I updated the class on what Maslow Project’s been up to since the pandemic began last March. 

We talked about the educational challenges the students in our community face, and about the devastation the wildfires left behind, and what the future might hold for our community.  The students followed up with intelligent questions, patiently listening and brainstorming how they might make a difference for our community.  

After that Zoom, I had no idea what the students might come up with! Some time passed and a trickle of emails came in with hints about what they were creating.  

Today I have not one fundraiser, but FIVE to share with you! The class divided into groups, each creating a unique fundraiser for Maslow Project!   

Art Auction - (open for two weeks February 21-March 7) As art is added to this virtual auction you can post a bid and win beautiful pieces.

Merchandise Store - purchase t shirts, mugs, masks, sweatshirts and proceeds will be donated to Maslow Project.

St. Patrick's Day Slime Making - via zoom with tutorial on February 27th 4-6pm. Fun for kids!

Silent Auction - Feb 22nd through the 27th

Animal Showcase - make a donation and submit a photo of your furry friend and you’ll be entered for a chance to win.

It’s been wonderful working with these creative and thoughtful students, please consider making a donation to a fundraiser of your choice and help support these students, and our community in need.
