@SpottedLaurier Yes! We would love to accept the following: - Non-perishable food - Menstrual products - Shampoo, soap, deodorant, toothpaste, etc. Contactless drop off in the red bin by the Bell Tower entrance at Martin Luther at Laurier Waterloo, Thursdays from 1:30 to 5:30pm

Are they taking food donations for the food bank at Martin Luther still? Or does anyone know anywhere around campus that takes food donations?

I have been advocating for the provision on menstrual care products at my university for two years now, with @ClaireCoder as my hero. @ClaireCoder, what is your best advice for sealing the deal on menstrual equity with big institutions?

In the course #EM203Robin, I have learned about Constructivism and the key points within the learning theory and how effective this theory can be in the classroom. I have also learned about the 3M's Multi-media, Multi-modal, and Multitasking.
