Circle K Service Day Every year, Circle K at the University of Michigan hold Circle K Service Day. Service day is our largest event of the year and includes 24 hours of continuous service, fundraisers, reflection, and Leadership Team Pieing! This year was such a success and it couldn’t have been done, without all of our members, sponsers and community partners!

The 2014 Trick or Can Food Drive was a wonderful success this year! Trick or Can is an annual food drive organized by Circle K’s Hunger and Housing Committee that collects non-perishable goods from local neighborhoods on Halloween. Over 100 students from Circle K, Sister 2 Sister and Will Work for Food went door to door, collecting 2750 pounds of canned goods and non-perishables. The goods were then boxed up and donated to Food Gathers, a food rescue and food bank that serves Washtenaw County. Every year Trick or Can is one of the most exciting and inspiring events organized by Circle K. Trick or Can helps fight hunger and raises awareness of the need in our local community. This could not have been done without the support of the amazing volunteers, organizers, and community members in and around the University of Michigan!involved Thank you for making or Can such a success! We’d like to thank everyone forTrick helping make Circle K Service Day such Teoh a success. We hope to see you next-Carina year! ` H&H Committee Member service | leadership | friendship

Final CK Moments of 2015
Members of the children’s committee singing at the Karaoke Social! The Historian Committee preparing for Service Day!
The donut eating Birthday Challenge! The Circle K Flag Football team made it all the way to the semi-finals! Playing on the Circle K flag football team was one of the most fun experiences of my time in Circle K. I am tragically un-athletic so it was really wonderful to play on a team with such supportive and awesome teammates. I really appreciate the MD committee organizing this team because now I get to say I scored a touchdown that counted for real points! - Carina Teoh, BE service | leadership | friendship
