Think Tank Series: 'How do we provide enough nutritious food for every Alaskan?' Sept. 10

Thursday, Sept. 10, 1-2:15 p.m. UAA/APU Consortium Library, Room 307

Guest agency: Food Bank of Alaska Topic: How do we provide enough nutritious food for every Alaskan?

Think Tanks are a monthly community engagement experience in which a nonprofit agency presents a challenge or issue and attendees brainstorm solutions for the organization.

Nearly 105,000 Alaskans-roughly 1 in 7-struggle with hunger. In any given week, 6,300 Alaska households turn to Food Bank of Alaska's network of food pantries, soup kitchens, senior centers and other programs for food assistance. Food Bank of Alaska believes that no one deserves to be hungry. So how can we as a community work together towards the goal of providing enough nutritious food for every Alaskan?

September is Hunger Action Month. This is your chance to learn about the issue and get involved.

Students, faculty, staff and community members-join us to assist the Food Bank and contribute your thoughts and ideas to the discussion.

Pizza will be provided by Moose's Tooth.

Parking note: There is a fee for parking on campus. Please allow extra time to find parking.
