Induction Day 2009B

A message of Love

On the occasion of Valentine Day, the community is warmed up by Love and seems to endorse many couples as well as singles to find the way to their own romance. “Couple of the Year” is not just about the impressive “Love proposal” or the special “Games on”; we are trying our best to create a dynamic campus life in RMIT Vietnam and gather every RMIT-er together in the atmosphere of Love.

Eventually, the true meaning of the event goes beyond finding the One and proving Love. Every ticket sold is a step closer to our aim of improving community welfare by providing the poor a chance to fulfill their dreams. The children helped through this project will be successful in the future when immorality and poverty still exist around. We know that they will recall their childhood and the noble deed to change the other poor lives will arise from the bottom of their compassionate hearts, which serves as a catalyst for us to stimulate this humane behavior in the forthcoming generations. In other words, it is not only an offer of help for the present but it also establishes a permanent foundation of hope and love in the future.”

It’s about time to discover your own destiny and contribute to our community’s welfare.

We look forward to seeing you in our journey of sharing love from the bottom of hearts.
