UIU Haiti Relief Fund

Fayette House members who were involved in the noble cause.

In support of the "UIU Haiti Relief Fund" in Fayette, Iowa, SEGi Subang Fayette House headed the fundraisers in the Subang campus. Together with Communication Club and AVES of ADP, and Student Council of SEGi College Subang Jaya, money was raised in February to help the earthquake victims of Haiti.

Way before any fund-raising activities took place, Fayette House set up a notice board next to cafeteria at 1st Floor to create awareness among college students on the catastrophe that hit Haiti. Upon getting the permission from the college authority, Fayette House went class to class to collect donations from ADP students, besides offering RM1 to the relief fund for every UIU car sticker sold. The response for both donation collection and car sticker promotion was overwhelming. As for Communication Club, the club conducted a two-day charity car wash! Not forgetting, AVES and Student Council allowed Fayette House to leave donation jars at their Valentine's Day booth.

Guess what?! We raised a total of RM714 for the earthquake victims of Haiti! A big thank you to every contributor!

Chinese New Year Celebration 2010

Fayette House members in red, ushering the new Lunar year with yee sang.

In conjunction with Chinese New Year, Fayette House members decorated Fayette House at 1st Floor and ADP counter at 10th Floor, two weeks before the celebration. Mandarin oranges were also served to visitors at Fayette House.

Today when college resumed after the students were off for Chinese New Year break, Fayette House celebrated Chinese New Year in college. Pete the Peacock was seen in 10th Floor, giving out 'ang pao' (red packets) to ADP staffs and students. Among the committee members of Fayette House, there was a yee sang session. It was a great celebration and hopefully that would bring a terrific year to everyone in ADP!
