Meet and Greet event 2017

Salam Alaikum our dear brothers and sisters,

We had the first official event for the running year of 2017 with our new and returning members, which was Meet and Greet. It’s an ice breaker event where people can introduce and know each other from the diverse background.

The main objective of this event was to introduce committee members and explain their job scope / responsibilities. We presented those activities that we had planned for this year and provided an insight into what we plan on to do.

We did a little quiz session about our club and gave some gifts to the participants. At the end, we had an open session for questions, concerns, and suggestions from the members so that we can get better in future. The open session was held with free food and drinks where the committee members met the club's member individually.

We thank Allah (SWT) that we have many diverse members from different backgrounds and culture who possess different needs. Whereas we as a club feels responsible for uniting and enriching the means of communication by holding out these kinds of events on regular basis. So, this was also a great chance for the members to get to know each other.

We thank all the members who took out their valuable time and came to support us.

The details of the event were as follows:

Date: 17th March 2017

Day: Friday

Time: 5:30pm - 7:30pm

Stress Free Snacks

Our ancestors acknowledged the role of fresh fruits or nuts a part of their daily diet. De-stressing through drinks and snacks has become a part of our daily routine. The little and often food has changed our lifestyle which makes us feel more hungry. However, the old eating habits brought natural calm while we sustained more energy for the whole day than depending on the multivitamins as a remedy. Different researchers have shown the adverse effect of stress can directly lead to unstable eating and can cause hormonal shifts and other disabilities in the body. The purpose of this little giveaway initiative during the examination period is to make students somewhat realize that their stresses are dependent on their healthy eating habits and the food is always the best remedy which they require at the right time of the day. The old saying like healthy body has a healthy mind acknowledges the role of our body for sustaining pressures. So join us for this free event...
