LACE Welcomes The Burrow!
LACE is excited to welcome back The Burrow!
The Burrow, Manhattan’s chapter of the Harry Potter Alliance, is a student organization at K-State that’s dedicated to helping the Manhattan community through charity fundraisers and outreach efforts inspired by the Harry Potter series. The Burrow follows the Harry Potter Alliance’s vision as a nonprofit organization to use “fan activism” and fight for equality, human rights, and literacy.
In order to help food insecure students, The Burrow is holding craft sale fundraisers throughout this semester to benefit Cats’ Cupboard: The K-State Food Pantry. The Burrow’s eclectic assortment of handmade, nerd-inspired crafts include polymer clay figurines, coasters, Perler bead pixel art, recycled comic book page roses, and more. All proceeds of The Burrow’s craft sale will be donated to Cats’ Cupboard, and a donation jar will be available for those who wish to simply give money.
Cats’ Cupboard is open to all K-State students in the basement of Fairchild Hall. Students can find food, hygiene products, and cooking equipment there for free and may utilize the pantry as often as they see fit. For more information, see Cats’ Cupboard’s web page at www.k-state.edu/cats-cupboard.

A word from 8 Bit Nerd Art –
