Equité
Love. Passion. Perseverance. Respect. Sisterhood.
Equité's vision & mission:
Equité is a platform for generations of strong, capable individuals who are provided with opportunities for personal development, self-expression and mutual growth. We foster an environment that encourages unity while respecting one’s individuality. We strive for our members to feel empowered and supported through the co-curricular experience.
What are we currently doing?
In April, Equite will be paint walls at a school possibly in collaboration with Venustia PSO. Every Tuesday in May, there will be school visits, committee will do motivational talks and pay 3 students' NBTs in each school. On 16 June, there will be a winter soup kitchen possibly with Eendrag for people in a disadvantaged community. On 29 July, there will be blanket donations possibly with Lydia as part of a blanket drive.
What else can you do?
Community service has been an integral part of Stellenbosch University (SUN) for decades albeit in different forms and with shifting emphasis. This platform allows you to make social impact within the university's (7) CSI themes.
