Region. Business students help charities

Fifty UWS business students, enrolled in the Convention and Special Event Management subject, spent a good part of their semester working on fundraising efforts as a way to put their event management skills into practice. Their work paid off raising over $22,000 for the following charities: Breast Cancer Foundation, Make-A-Wish Foundation, Northcott Foundation, Wenty Wheelchair Kings, Wheelchair Sports NSW and Youth Off The Streets. Catherine Link, Lecturer in the School of Management, said she was proud of the students' work and pleased with their outstanding result.
