Yhhap fast
The Fast is YHHAP’s largest fundraiser of the year, and the largest student-run fundraiser at Yale. This event raises funds from students and the broader Yale community to support four organizations doing critical on-the-ground work to fight hunger and homelessness in New Haven.
From November 11 to November 22, your donations will support the YHHAP Fast Fund.
Students can sign up to abstain from their meal swipes on April 6, instead allowing Yale Hospitality to donate that value to the Fast Fund.
All funds raised will be distributed between Sunrise Cafe, New Reach, Witnesses to Hunger, and Amistad House.
how to support Fast
Yale students can support Fast by donating their dining hall meal swipes for the day of November 23. To donate your meal swipes, go to yub.yale.edu, select ‘dining’ from the dropdown menu on the left, and click on ‘Yale Hunger and Homelessness Action Project’. Then fill out the linked form to donate your swipes! This Fall, donation sign-ups open on November 11 and close on November 22 at 8 pm.
Other donations can be made in the form of a direct financial contribution to YHHAP through this website or to our venmo @yhhap-yale.
Both donation pages can be accessed by clicking the buttons below:
