SPOON organizes a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday breakfast cooking program (every week) where you can cook breakfast with your dorm or interest group (church, community service, a capella, dance, fraternity, sorority, cultural, etc.) and serve it to the homeless at the Palo Alto Opportunity Center. This is a great way to help out the community, spend time with your peers and HAVE FUN! :). If you have time after serving your breakfast at the Opportunity Center (and don't have time to rush back for class), minging, hanging around, and talking to the homeless can be a great, eye-opening experience. Sign up early to make sure you get the desired date to help out!
