Upcoming Leadership Events: We Invite You to Get Involved! Holiday Meal or Multicultural Show

BHS Holiday Meal on December 8-9, 2017
The 2017 Holiday Meal is an awesome annual event where over 250 guests receive food and good cheer from 200+ Berkeley High volunteers. Although some of the guests typically are living without full-time housing, the doors are open to anyone who wants a heartwarming meal and entertainment.

We invite the entire BHS community to get involved in this service event in any or all of these 4 ways:


  1.  Join Planning Committee
  2.  Donate Funds
  3.  Donate Food http://www.signupgenius.com/go/5080d4faea62da57-bhsholiday
  4.  Volunteer

1. Nishat Sheikh, Chief of Service, is building a planning committee for this large service event. The committee will be in charge of running all aspects of the Meal--from gathering volunteers, to advertising, to keeping track of how much food we have/need, etc.. Sign up on this Google Form to play a bigger role with this event. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdBJ_azeXRxo5FWuhdIPif1UOVagDJOlmFEh9AwQr_DzkR1Eg/viewform?c=0&w=1

4. Holiday Meal volunteers have a tremendous impact on the event whether they are setting up the space on the day before the meal or interacting with guests on the day of the event. We plan to have space for at least 300 volunteers this year, so be on the lookout for the volunteer list when it gets posted in mid-November.
