SWAN’s Night Out
12 May 2022 @ 7:00 pm - 10:00 pm
The Stellenbosch University Women Alumnae Network (SWAN) in London invites you to join us for a night out with Matie alumna, Liz Lugt, as part of our continued celebration of International Women’s Day.
Liz, a leadership consultant, speaker and coach, will be talking about three ways that we as SWANs can develop our presence and impact as women, build stronger relationships with others, and grow in our own confidence.
Read more about her HERE.
Come join us for great conversations, a delicious meal, drinks, and karaoke.
Only 30 spaces are available for this exciting evening. We hope you will secure your place soon and use the opportunity to give back and support the next generation of SWANs who are studying at Stellenbosch University (SU) right now.
Your donation of £30 or more will help towards the funding of sanitary product vending machines for our campuses. Students will be given tokens to redeem at the machines and receive their sanitary products for free. This will ensure that these students will no longer have to sacrifice a meal or their education for a basic right.
Did you know that 35% of women in South Africa are faced with the choice of buying a loaf of bread or sanitary products? On average students across South Africa miss five days of education each month owing to a lack of access to sanitary products.
Every pound raised will make a significant impact to ending #EndPeriodPoverty, one of the priority initiatives under the University’s annual fundraising campaign, Bridge the Gap.
If you are unable to attend but still wish to make a difference to a student’s life at SU, please donate HERE.
