Are you interested in improving the image of our campus and community?

 
The Student Tobacco Awareness Coalition partners with existing UNLV organizations (ie Colleges Against Cancer, AMSA, etc) and community-wide public health groups like Southern Nevada Evolvement (SNHD's youth advocacy movement), ALA, NPHA to raise awareness of the financial, public health and environmental risks of toxic tobacco use -- through demonstrations, campus cleanups and campus/community wide educational activities.
 

The Southern Nevada Health District is partnering with the Student Tobacco Awareness Coalition (STAC) to host
 
Kick Butts Week
 March 20th-22nd, 9am - 6pm
 Link to Volunteer Sign Up

 
The purpose of Southern Nevada Evolvement's Kick Butts Day (March 21st @ Northfield) is to highlight the over 600 smoke free
college/university campuses nationwide.
 
STAC is partnering to include a 2 day cigarette butt cleanup (March 20th @ Pida Plaza, March 21st @ Northfield). Results Day will showcase how many cigarette butts we collected during the 2 day cleanup event (March 22nd @ Pida Plaza). We are also seeking volunteers to assist with our count throughout the week.
 
This entire event will take place at UNLV. Parking passes may become available upon request. Contact stac...@gmail.com to make a request or submit any questions about the event.
 
PLEASE RSVP FOR THE EVENT:  Link to Volunteer Sign Up. Walk on volunteers will be accepted but RSVPing is highly encouraged if you would like to select a participation preference.
 
Find the Zone Map for the Cleanup attached (in both .jpg and .pdf). If you will be participating in the cleanup, please print and bring this map with you on the day of the event.
 

Last year, campus volunteers and club partners came out in force to collect 16,435 cigarette butts in under 6 hours! What a feat!!! Let's see how much more of an impact we can make this spring with more volunteers and more time!!!!
 
Let's Kick Butt Together!
