Community Fundraiser

Did you know that it takes Volunteers AND money–any amount– to keep Global Connections running? That’s why we are having a fundraiser reception coming up on Thursday, 2/6 from 4:30 – 6:00 pm at the McMaster Room (308) in the Bowen-Thompson Student Union at BGSU.

Complimentary/free appetizers (meat and meatless) and drinks will be offered beginning at 4:30 pm. At 5:00 pm, you will have the opportunity to hear briefly from Venera Alibekova (International Resident from Uzbekistan), Arpan Yagnik (International Student from India, BGSU), Andrea Voogd (Assistant Director, International Student Services, BGSU), Pascal Bizarro (College of Business Faculty, BGSU), and Maria Simon (Youth Services, Wood County District Public Library) about the impact of Global Connections on this community.

Victor Ten Brink (Chairman of the GC Board) will give a short direct-appeal (low-key and no pressure) for funds. Any amount will help keep Global Connections running. You’ll also hear briefly from Mallory James and Julie George, GC staff.

Socializing and networking continue at 5:35 pm.

Please RSVP with Mallory at mjames@globalconnectionsbg.org by Thursday, 1/30. Complimentary parking passes are available for anyone who doesn’t already have a parking pass.
Hope to see you there to show your support of Global Connections!
