The individual member is also expected to align with a graduate and/or alumni chapter, following graduation from college to perpetuate the purpose of the council and their individual organizations.

BGSU's SVA chapter will be conducting a food drive. On September 14, we will be passing our flyers stating who we are, what we are doing, and directions on leaving food for pickup. On September 21, we will be picking up any food left by residents for our food drive and transporting it to a local food pantry. Our goal this year is to reach out more to the community and this is one of our ways of doing that. Many veterans live in poverty and rely on food pantries. This is our way of going to war on hunger in the community of Bowling Green.Learn more at http://bgsu.presence.io/event/war-on-hunger
