Last Thursday VHP partnered with the Vassar Greens to throw The Dinner Party, a super sophisticated fundraiser for our reforestation initiative. Below, guest blogger Amanda Cheung ’13, Co-President of the Vassar Greens, recaps the collaboration.<\/em><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The Greens had a fantastic time organizing the Dinner Party with VHP this past Thursday!<\/div>\n
\n
Setup was a little hectic when guests started to arrive before we finished setting up the food, but after that, the rest of the event went smoothly. Overall, everyone had a chance to eat delicious food provided by Slow Food and several house fellows while enjoying the performances of\u00a0acapella groups and a jazz combo. Also,\u00a0I’m happy to announce that we were able to raise more money than was expected for the Reforestation Initiative!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
\n
The Zero Waste aspect of the event was also a success! The majority of the materials used for the event were either<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
recyclable, reusable, or compostable. Only a minimum amount of trash had to be thrown away at the end of the event.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
This was a great learning experience for the Greens since we don’t normally organize dinner party fundraisers.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
We look forward to our next collaboration with VHP in the future!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
