Rubbish bins and blood donations for “UNDIKSHA”, University in Singaraja.

UNDIKSHA, the local University of Singaraja, Bali’s former capital in the North of Bali, was celebrating it’s anniversary. Students gathered in social projects and funactivities.

In the last week of April students from the “D 3 English department” of UNDIKSHA organized 3 days of social activities for fellow students. There were sporting events and the Red Cross organzation was present to take blood transfusion from volunteers. The blood from these blood transfusions will be kept at the Bali blood bank in Denpasar. This blood bank was set up ten years ago with the help of cooperating Rotary Clubs from Bali. The students raised money for small food hampers for blood donating volunteers, and to provide rubbish bins for the campus. On Wednesday 28 April 2009, just after their weekly meeting, Rotarians from the Lovina Club, joined the students at their “beach volleyball” tournament and handed over a contribution that was allocated to purchase 8 rubbish bins and to pay energizing food hampers for bloodtranfusion volunteers. The donation was handed over by President Conchita to the head of committee I Gede Adi Kumarata. By providing the rubbish bins, the students hope the campus can be kept clean.

About two weeks later I Gede Adi Kumara and a fellow student gave a presentation during the club’s weekly meeting to show the result of their activities.
