A Message from Executive Board:
Hey OYFAns!
On behalf of OYFA Board and Council, we just want thank everyone who has helped us out so far in our Typhoon Haiyan Relief Fundraising Campaign! We really could not have one it without you all. We have raised over $3,000 so far!
This week, OYFA will be helping out the Darden Student Association with their Typhoon Haiyan Relief Drive until this Thursday, November 21st! The family heads will be collecting items so please look out for more information from them on when they can collect the stuff from you guys! If you are not in a family but still would like to donate any goods, please email oyfaboard@gmail.com and we will arrange something! The list of items that you can donate is on the flyer below.
OYFA Class Penny Wars are STILL going on! We will have the money jars at Barrio Workshop tomorrow but you can also give money to the people in charge of the change for each class!
4th Years: Camille Lorenzana and Edric San Miguel
3rd Years: Justin Trinidad and Allan Bagsic
2nd Years: Christine Tran and Leangelo Acuna
1st Years: Elexa Rallos and Madelyn Luansing
Pennies are positive points, the rest are all negative points. The class with the least negative/most positive points win! The last day we will be collecting change is at Thanksgiving Potluck on November 24th, and the winning class will be announced at the end. So keep collecting change!
Thank you again for your continuous support, and be on the lookout for more typhoon relief fundraising events!

FIND
Hello there, you fine lookin' piece of sweetness
If you weren't at the last meeting, we announced the unfortunate cancellation of FIND Dialogue due to complications with the venue. So instead to promote interactions within D7, Jor and I are working with some peeps from FACT@VCU to plan out some activities for this Saturday, November 23 in Richmond! If you're interested in going, it will be either a day trip or a night trip depending on what you want to do, so fill this out! Come out to Culture's Barrio Workshop tomorrow night, because we'll be in charge of Skit stuff, and it'll be a great time!
Keep in mind that this month's SFAS theme is Culture and Traditions, so ponder that for the rest of this month ;D
