Every year, the Active Civic Teaching Office (ACT) at the University of the Free State runs the Big Give campaign to raise food, money to buy food, and other forms of assistance for needy students. This year is no different. ACT’s big project is raising money for sanitary pads for students on all three campuses. The project will run throughout Women’s Month, August 2021. Providing menstrual hygiene products to female students empower them to continue their studies in comfort.
Karen Scheepers, Assistant Director: Kovsie Support Services, said: “This year, one of the challenges that have been highlighted is the lack of sanitary wear for students. Therefore, we focus our Big Give campaign this year on addressing this challenge that students are experiencing.”
Be part of the Big Give campaign by donating sanitary pads or money towards this initiative. Donation boxes are ready for donations at all the entrance gates of all three campuses. Your donation will go a long way in helping a deserving student.

The University of the Free State (UFS) held an Open Day on the Main Campus in Bloemfontein this week to give prospective students the opportunity to familiarize themselves with the university. The two day event included exhibitions by all the faculties, support services, residences as well as various corporate institutions. Visitors were also taken on a campus tour and treated to a variety of fun activities. The event attracted a large number of pupils from different schools across the Free State province. Among them were, from the left: Setjhele Tamane (Monyakeng High, Wesselsbron), Evelyn Mothabe (Rearabetswe High, Odendaalsrus), Yvonne Masike (Rearabetswe High) and Moeane Reuben Phafane (Monyakeng High).
