The Food Pantry is run by a small team of staff, including a coordinator and support staff positions. Typically, the Food Pantry would be seeking volunteers to help with day to day operations, such as gathering and organizing donations, assisting students with appointments, and helping with food security projects.
If you are interested in Volunteering with the Food Pantry, Please contact the Food Pantry Coordinator Preeti, at ausufood.pantry@ausu.algomau.ca
The People’s Garden supports the AUSU Food Pantry by providing fresh vegetables and herbs during the growing and harvest season on the Sault Ste. Marie campus. In addition to providing food to aid in food security projects, the Garden team hosts workshops, knowledge sharing sessions, and community engagement activities such as Harvest Dinners. The People’s Garden is currently looking for students to help maintain and develop the garden, ensuring that crops are watered, garden beds are weeded, and assisting in promoting the garden operations to the community. If you are interested in helping out, please contact the People’s Garden Coordinator, Henna, at peoplesgarden@ausu.algomau.ca!
The Sentient is the student newspaper at Algoma University that covers opinion pieces, community news, politics, editorials, and many other topics. Assisting with the newspaper will allow you to gain valuable experience in journalism and media studies and is an excellent opportunity to get involved in the Algoma University community! Now, more than ever, there is a need for meaningful discussions to be taking place, and Algoma U students can be a part of getting those discussions started or continuing ongoing ones.
Those interested in submitting pieces should email sentient@ausu.algomau.ca
