Hey everyone,
We received another deadline for the $250 fee since we are so close to our goal of 10 volunteers, we just need two more people! Meeting this goal of 10 volunteers covers our flights and reduces costs for the brigade. If you are still interested in joining the brigade (June 23-29) and did not meet the previous deadlines, you have till March 21, 6 pm to pay the fee. To pay the non-refundable fee, you must make a volunteer account first. When paying, make sure to make a donation towards yourself and not towards the our university chapter. This makes it easier for us to track how many volunteers we have. As always, ask the e-board any questions/concerns you may have via our groupchat.
