- Impact Week
Fall Impact Week is November 11-15, 2024 and Spring Impact Week is March 31-April 4, 2025. Impact Week is an event where three student organizations will compete to receive grant funding to complete their proposed community service project. These projects will benefit the William & Mary community and beyond. To receive funding, organizations must encourage fellow students to vote for their project in the form of a $5 gift to William & Mary that can benefit any area of campus. Funding received will be determined by the number of votes:
- 1st place will receive $2,500 towards their project
- 2nd place will receive $1,500 towards their project
- 3rd place will receive $1,000 towards their project

W&M Campus Food Exchange
The Campus Food Exchange is a confidential program open every week that school is in session. It provides students, faculty, and staff at William & Mary access to nonperishable food, household products, and personal hygiene products. We have two locations: the basement of the Wesley House and Room 157 of the Sadler Center. At the Wesley House, we also offer perishable foods thanks to our Food Rescue program that can be found in the industrial refrigerator in the Wesley House Fellowship Hall.
The Food Exchange is run by Food for All, an on-campus club that unlocks food access for William & Mary.
