BETTER LIFE: LETS TALK MENTAL HEALTH
Calling all students! Better Life SFU wants to raise awareness on how the pandemic and online school have impacted the mental health of students, and we need your help! Better Life SFU will be conducting a survey through Google Forms Wednesday, March 24th - Sunday, March 28th to give students a platform to share their experiences from over the past year. Responses may be submitted with the option of anonymity.
Upon completion of the survey, participants will be given the option to complete a separate form to win one of three $25 gift card prizes! Winners are picked at random and will be contacted toward the end of this semester
BETTER LIFE CLOTHING DRIVE
In Fall 2019, Better Life partnered with the Purpose Society and the SFU Pre-Med Fraternity in running a clothing drive. We focused on collecting warm clothing to help our less fortunate communities stay warm during the Winter. With an extremely successful week of collecting donations, we were able to collect over 45 bags of clothing from SFU students, staff, and faculty from all three campuses.
​
Thank you to everyone who contributed in making this event successful. We appreciate each and everyone of you.
BETTER LIFE FOOD DRIVE
During the 2019 summer semester, Better Life collaborated with the SFSS Food bank and the Greater Vancouver Food Bank in organizing a week long food drive at SFU's Burnaby Campus. The collection of both food and monetary donations were made in efforts to help the less fortunate around the SFU and Greater Vancouver communities. With over $300 raised and approximately 100 pounds of non-perishable food items collected, the success of this event would have not been possible without the selfless and generous acts of all SFU students and staff.
