Adelphi's Sixth Consecutive Newman Civic Fellow Strives to Fight Food Insecurity

Adelphi University junior Joe Sawma, a student from Lebanon, was named a 2023 Newman Civic Fellow, one of the nation's most prestigious leadership opportunities for students. Sawma was recognized by the Newman Civic Fellowship organization for creating a program that lets Adelphi students donate outstanding balances from their meal plans toward items for the campus food pantry. His A Meal for Me, A Meal for You initiative has collected more than $4,000 worth of items for students facing food insecurity since he founded the program during his first year at Adelphi. Sawma will join around 200 students at virtual and in-person events to engage in learning opportunities and develop new ideas for social change. A yearlong civic learning and networking experience, the Newman Civic Fellowship recognizes and supports student public problem solvers at institutions that are members of Campus Compact, a coalition of colleges and universities committed to advancing the public purposes of higher education. Fellows are nominated by their president or chancellor based on their potential for public leadership and their work with communities. Sawma's fellowship will comprise skill development and professional learning, one-to-one leadership development with a local mentor, access to special scholarship and career opportunities, and participation in Newman's annual convention. He hopes to broaden his commitment to doing good. "I want to expand my meal plan donation program to campuses across the United States," he said. "I hope to make some connections through Newman to make that happen."
