Join the Banco Alimentar Collection Campaign!

The Universidade Católica Portuguesa is once again associated with the Banco Alimentar Collection Campaign. On May 6 and 7, volunteers will be at the Colombo Shopping Centre's Continente Hypermarket collecting food to support needy Portuguese families.

This campaign is intended to: raise basic foods for which there are no surpluses (such as milk, rice, pasta, olive oil, oil, grain and beans, tuna, sausages, biscuits and breakfast cereals); to encourage sharing with people who do not have food at their table; to sensitize the community to the food shortages that affect many families.

To register as a volunteer, simply fill out this form *, indicating your availability.

*The form was created by the campaign organization and is in Portuguese only. The mandatory fields are: email, volunteer's name, name of the University, degree/year, mobile phone contact and availability.

Important note: By submitting the registration you are automatically validated for the chosen shift, so you must be at the location on the selected day/time. A proof of registration will be sent to the email indicated in the form.
