"The hunger strike, in my mind, serves two purposes: to raise awareness about the issue FOMM RaJRTY ¥Wi on campus that we have students who truly do not have the means to provide food for themselves, and also to create a way to perpetuate the program, because last year we just used the president's budget to fund it," said Senate President Justin Neville. The idea for a hunger strike came from a successful campaign by student organization STAND. Fast year the STAND fundraiser brought in more than $2,500 in just one day's time. Neville said he is shooting for $2,000 in 13 hours. The program first began with money drawn from then-student body president Tyler Tathem's budget. But since inception, students have demonstrated an increasingly high demand for the service, so efforts are being made to make the program and money contributions more permanent. "Weber Cares was created last year and it was funded by the student body president Tyler Tathem's budget that he had, and around $1,400 dollars of his budget was put towards the initiative," said Cole Spicker, senator for the College of Science and chair of the Student Affairs committee, that is PHOTO BY BRYAN BUTTERFIELD I THE SIGNPOST 4 in charge of organizing the event.
