2009 Year in Review
The Bridges program gave 82 presentations in 2009 reaching over 2400 students and others. Each presentation has been logged in the Bridges Rapport database which includes a description of how the presentations went during that visit to the school. 2009's presentations break down like this:
9 Middle school presentations
61 High school presentations
9 College presentations
1 for TLOV
1 Adult Learning class
1 Senior Center presentation
We received many outstanding compliments from students and teachers, many of whom have expressed an interest in veganism as well. We also followed up with students who had criticisms to better explain our perspective and better understand their concerns.
In addition, Bridges gave away a couple of thousand food samples and materials during the presentations, held four training sessions (including the one at TLOV), sent a mass email gaining several new teachers, and participated in the Go Green Expo to hand out just about another thousand food samples. We were briefly interviewed there.
