Peer Education Conference Community Outreach Project

The members of SPOT would like your help collecting food items for local food pantries or similar organizations. With the focus on local, there is no need to transport your collected items to Kearney for Peer Education Conference. Instead, we ask that you fill out this Reporting Form and self-report the number of items or pounds of food collected and donated to the organization of your choice. 

Pre-Conference Event

Traveling to Kearney the night before?  The Nebraska State Officer Team will be hosting a special event. The winning chapter will receive 50% of all registration funds from the event to be donated to a non-profit organization of their choice. In a typical year, an average of $300.00 will be donated on your behalf.
