Thanks to all of you who participated in the February UUCSF in action events. And an even more special thanks to those who stepped up to coordinate and to videotape. We also applaud the staff who helped in so many ways. We hope to reschedule the two events that had to be postponed at a later time.
Our blood drive was very successful. Over twenty of us volunteered to donate and we collected 18 pints of blood -- enough to help 54 patients! With the help of the RE kids we collected $118 to co-sponsor the peace rally on Mothers' Day. Be sure to save the date - May 11 - so that we have a big UUCSF presence that afternoon.
Our earlier activities: health care advocacy, the Bienvenidos food drive, and assistance with eye screenings at DeVargas were quite successful also.
We learned a lot during this process and we look forward to creativity and efforts to keep social justice a major focus here at UUCSF.
