“If you’re living on the streets then you might not get real interaction with others regularly, so the Saturday morning picnic is what it’s all about, showing caring and love, and making someone feel better.” Johnston said the activities allow students to connect with the area’s homeless. “It’s about having a genuine conversation with other people, not showing them pity,” Johnston said. “When you go a couple times, you start making friends with the regular ‘customers’ and you get to talk to them, hear their story, and just having a real conversation means so much to someone who might not get to talk to anyone all week.” Bridge Club is not an officially recognized club at UT, but the founders said this increases the group’s appeal. Being unofficial and solely student-run allows the club to be more flexible with participating students. “You can come and go as you like, there’s no mandatory attendance or dues, and we don’t exclude people — it’s just a fun way to help others,” O’Donnel said. Bridge Club meets at the first floor of the Crossings residence hall. Students are asked to sign into a spreadsheet with their name and email so that they can be sent club info and updates. Students break into small groups and are assigned tasks like making sandwiches, filling plastic bags with chips or cookies or assembling lunches.

Michelle Hoffman, a senior majoring in exercise science, listens to a homeless person Saturday morning.

First-time volunteer Keesha Lane, a junior majoring in psychology, said she liked that all levels of students both undergrads and grad students were participating. “I think it’s a really fun, nice way to volunteer especially since it’s on campus, and I plan on going to the downtown picnic in the future,” Lane said. Ceira Chen, a longtime member and junior majoring in exercise science, said people are drawn to the playful and relaxed atmosphere. “A lot of students aren’t local and don’t really get involved with the community, and Bridge club is a fun, easy way to do that,” Chen said. “You don’t realize how much a bag lunch can make someone’s day.”

Although there are no more sandwich-making events scheduled this semester, regular meetings will start up again next spring. In the meantime, students are encouraged to go downtown on Saturday mornings to volunteer at the Food for Thought picnic. “The beauty of this is that it’s college people coming together for the common good, helping the community and being awesome,” Johnston said. “You can come here and forget about your problems, schoolwork, drama or whatever and just help people.” Anyone who wants to volunteer can carpool with Bridge Club members by meeting in front of the Crossings at 9:30 a.m.
