“By helping one another in times of disaster, nations are strengthening the bonds of goodwill that will yet bring the peoples of earth together.” – Walter Van Kirk
 
In view of the flood disaster that happened recently ay Kedah, 37 APU students and 2 lecturers from the APU Sekreteriat Rukun Negara and APU School of General Studies departed to Bedong, Kedah to assist a medical camp in collaboration with Sathya Sai Medicare. In addition, the students also helped to clean the areas that were affected with flood, in collaboration with the Bedong Local Authority.
 
Prior to the visit, our students also organized a series of fund-raising activities at APU, in which they managed to raise a total of RM500 for the flood victims. One of our student’s relative also assisted in donating 200 T-shirts and socks to the victims.
 
We are glad to hear that our students participated in such meaningful efforts, and we are touched by their efforts in assisting those who were in need. Kudos to the students and lecturers who made this happen.
