Subject: UCSB Volunteer Opportunities - Meetings Tomorrow!
To: <anshum...@global.ucsb.edu>


Hello Anshu!


I stopped by your office earlier today in SSMS, but must have missed
you. I wanted to speak to you about information sessions we are having
on campus all day tomorrow about service-learning opportunities in
Thailand, Laos, Tanzania, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Hawai’i and
the Pacific NW with GIVE Volunteers. We are also working on restarting
our GIVE student group on campus that supports local volunteer
initiatives in the IV and Santa Barbara community! I was wondering if
you could share an email to Global Studies students with information
about these meetings.


I believe your students will be really excited about these
opportunities and could certainly benefit from this experience. As a
past volunteer myself, I can personally speak to the level of personal
and professional growth I gained, and would love to share more
information about these opportunities with your students.



Iʻve included an email draft below with details about the info
sessions we’re having on campus. If you could please forward it along
with the attached flyer I would really appreciate it!



Please let me know if I can provide you with any additional materials
or information, and feel free to pass this along to students, faculty,
and anyone else who might be interested.



Thanks again for your time and support.



Best wishes,

Chelsey Deacon

infrastructure, womenʻs empowerment, regenerative agriculture, marine
conservation, and forest restoration projects.

adventures like an African safari, trekking with elephants,
sandboarding down an active volcano, scuba diving with sea turtles,
dolphins, and sharks, whitewater and bamboo rafting, whale-watching
and so much more!



All of our trips are designed to ensure that your presence in our host
