FOOD NOT BOMBS PRESENTATION One great way to help start a Food Not Bombs group is to invite the co-founder Keith McHenry to speak to your community. Student activity centers at colleges and universities will provide funding for a presentation by Keith, helping with airfare and an honorarium. You can learn more about Keith and listen to his presentations here |
YOUR LITERATURE AND FOOD TABLEYour Food Not
Bombs group can have real impact when you include literature and a banner
at every meal. If you set up your table at a location that is busy with a
diversity of people at a time when lots of pedestrians walk by you will be
able to attract more volunteers and discover new food sourses. You can also
meet people who would have never known about the issues we are working on.
Many Food Not Bombs tables are considered the place to visit for
infromation, community as well as great food. This page shows you how you
can have a more effective Food Not Bombs table. |
