General Information:

HumCo is a committee for everyone on campus who feels like actually doing something good for other people on this earth, especially the ones that have less opportunity in life or even struggle to survive. We want to make a difference (even if it’s small) and therefore try to raise awareness for issues that we think are important on our campus. We are at first place a fundraising committee; however our motto is to try to give people (mostly UC students) something back for the money they donate. The committee has been very active, especially in other years with a Slave Auction, Valentine’s Day Activity, Lottery Party, Argentina Week, High Tea and much more. The only things that can make this committee successful are its members, who bring their own ideas, own charity-purposes and enthusiasm to every committee meeting. You can decide yourself how much time and effort you want to dedicate to the particular projects that we run all through the year. If you feel like this is something for you, please visit our stand at the committee market, and sign up (without strings attached) to find out more about this committee. So next to the fact that you can do something good this committee is also lots of fun.

Where is your money going this time?

HUMco presents this semester’s charity: Fundación Desarrollo a Través del Deporte. The basic idea behind this organisation is to positively and sustainably change the kids’ and teenagers’ attitude towards life through personal growth and development by using sports as a tool. The link is in spanish but the clip gives you an idea of what the charity is about.
