Hey Agora friends! Hope you had a good extra-long winter break. Unfortunately, we'll have to start term 2 with some bad news which is that we will still be closed. We'll still be maintaining our online presence just as we have done over the past term and coming up with new events and collabs. There are a lot of ways to keep track of us and to support us. We recommend visiting https://linktr.ee/agoracafeubc to check out all our social media, newsletter, and more! Happy new year and good luck!

Since the café was shut down back in March due to Covid-19, Agora has been facing financial difficulties that would make it hard for us to reopen safely. With the start of November, we are launching our 1-month crowdfunding campaign. Before the café can reopen in the future, the café requires upgrades that meet the safety standards set out by UBC and the province of BC. This campaign allows us to raise enough money to purchase the necessary equipment and materials that will a...llow us to implement our safety strategy. This includes the installation of plexiglass, PPE, and proper sanitation methods. $1500 was calculated to be the necessary amount of funds needed to facilitate our reopening. Agora Café appreciates any help that we receive from people like you. Even if you are not in a position to give, we encourage that you share our campaign (https://bit.ly/34w3Lpx) and our social media posts with your friends and family. The shift to online learning has posed a great challenge to us by hindering our ability to connect with students and faculty, but we thank you to those who continue to support us online. Our crowdfunding campaign can be found here: https://crowdfundraising.ubc.ca//agora-cafe-covid-19-upgr/ The multiple ways that you can support us can be found here: https://linktr.ee/agoracafeubc THANK YOU!!
