Thanks for an Awesome Semester!

Lauren — Wed, 30 Nov 2011 15:39:45 +0000

We’ve accomplished so much in such a short amount of time, both locally and in the global community!

Thanks to your efforts and the donations we received during Act!Speak!Build! Week we were able to send funding directly to Habitat affiliates in Nicgaragua, Bangladesh, Madagascar, and Haiti.

This video describes the work Habitat for Humanity is currently doing in Haiti to address the pressing need for sufficient housing. In addition to providing families with adequate shelter, Habitat for Humanity of Haiti is also providing citizens with instruction in financial literacy and disaster recovery, as well as employment opportunities.

By working with other Registered Student Organizations through the Environmental Coalition at UCF, we organized UCF’s inaugural National Recycle Week. Throughout the week students from various organizations united to support support sustainability and environmentalism.

We had a blast getting to know everyone at tailgates, socials, and meetings!

Good luck with finals and I hope you have an awesome winter break,
