Milk Bags Needed
We are collecting milk bags for "Milk Bags Unlimited 2.0", a student driven Social Justice Initiative, that provides sleeping mats to several Third World Countries.
Our goal is to collect 1000 bags (the large outer bag from the 3x1L bag).
We ask that a representative from your Region bring the bags to the Conference. Can you win the prize, and help with this wonderful work?
For more information contact the OAPCE office.
