RECYCLING @ UIW! GREEN VS GRAY CONTAINERS

Important Message from Grounds Department: The green recycling containers are limited to paper, aluminum, plastic, and small cardboard. Any item that contains food or residue of food should be placed in the gray waste containers not the green recycling containers. We would also appreciate it if cardboard boxes could be flattened before you place them next to the waste containers. This will reduce the size of the cardboard pile in our storage area. Thank You!

SPOTLIGHT: 1ST HOME GAME TAILGATE

Who: SCTNow What: 5K Walk/Fun Run When: Saturday, September 24th Where: University of Incarnate Word On Saturday, September 24th, SCTNow will bring together individuals, corporations, organizations, churches and student groups at the University of Incarnate Word Campus to become a “voice for the vulnerable” in a 5K Walk/Fun Run. This event is part of a global campaign to raise awareness and funds to stop child trafficking now. Similar events will be held throughout the month of September across the country and Canada, attracting thousands of people to fight this global epidemic.

Stop Child Trafficking Now (SCTNow) has spent the past two years mobilizing motivated individuals like you in 35 cities in 18 US states, on hundreds of college campuses to bring freedom to children enslaved by this crime. With the help of 10,000 event participants, 50,000 Facebook and Twitter followers and over 4 million website hits, together we are sending a message to the perpetrators of this atrocity: the abuse must stop.

Until the demand is confronted, there will continue to be individuals eager to supply children for this crime. In an effort to curb the demand, SCTNow partners with specially trained operatives, who are experts in the field of covert surveillance and counter-terrorism to target the source of child trafficking - predators. The operatives provide extra support and resources for law enforcement to effectively investigate, prosecute and convict predators of child trafficking victims.

SCTNow fights for freedom and brings a message of hope to the thousands of children enslaved in the San Antonio metro area and across the globe.

Be a part of the solution and join SCTNow for a family friendly walk and a 5k fun run through the University of Incarnate Word campus.

Come to visit with local organizations, enjoy music and other family entertainment and leave with information that can protect your family and build a stronger, healthier community.

There is no registration fee and participants who raise $100 will receive a free T-Shirt. Join a team or form one of your own to help mobilize others. Be proactive! Let’s walk to make an impact in combating this crime against innocent children!

Come volunteer or walk!

Register now at www.sctnow.org
