The Salaam MENA Cultural Center’s ‘Dinner on Us’ cultural programs create community in alignment with the Student Affairs SSIB mission to “provide support for students to reach their personal, academic, and professional goals through curricular and co-curricular engagement opportunities... rooted in the goals of being more diverse, equitable, and inclusive to create a sense of belonging for students and other members of the university community” and the UIUC’s strategic plan "to embrace, encourage, and adapt to the accelerating diversity of cultures, ideas, and identities [which] fuels our creative spirit and leads us to consider new perspectives, possibilities, and knowledge.”

Please reach out to Salaam's director, Awad Awad, at awad@illinois.edu, to discuss the possibility of Salaam hosting a 'Dinner on Us' event for your RSO, department, or unit.
