Lunch sessions over the next couple of weeks will educate UWindsor faculty and staff about some of the United Way programs fighting child poverty in Windsor-Essex.

An Emerging Philanthropists lunch-and-learn on Tuesday, Nov. 12, is aimed at employees in their 20s and 30s. Set for noon in Vanier Hall’s Oak Room, it will offer information on the #unignorable campaign from the perspective of a child growing up in poverty, and how you can help.

A session for Women United on Tuesday, Nov. 19, in Katzman Lounge, Vanier Hall, will discuss the On Track to Success program and how it is building secure futures for at-risk children. Current members of Women United will offer testimonials about their contributions to reducing local poverty.

A free lunch will be served at both events. For more details or to RSVP, email Sheri Lowrie at sherio@uwindsor.ca.
