Leadership
Project: “Hope for Change” |
The
recent tsunami tragedy has killed more than 150,000 people
not including the 168,000 who are missing or injured. Reports
are saying that “the worse is yet to come” as
over a
million people are homeless and infrastructure is almost
non-existent.
The University
Leadership Conference and the Volunteer and Service Center
have decided to aid this disaster by working with the American
Red Cross to bring HOPE to victims of the tsunami.
All conference
participants are invited to take a leadership role by donating
spare change to this cause. Bring your spare pennies, nickels,
dimes and quarters with you on the day of the conference
to drop in our hope buckets. All proceeds will go the American
Red Cross and will be earmarked specifically for the tsunami
disaster relief fund. |

skills” into action. Many Cal State Fullerton organizations

Prizes, food, and giveaways will all be part of the fun. |
