Global Awareness Week Badminton Fundraiser, Presented by Sport and Wellness and MacEwan International Combine a fun, healthy activity with raising awareness for global issues. Staff, faculty and students are invited to join a badminton tournament during Global Awareness Week. Proceeds from the tournament will go to Sport in a Box, a United Nations Association in Canada project using sport to foster global engagement and social-cultural diversity. Tournament trials will take place Monday (Feb 2) through Thursday (12:30 to 1:30 pm) with the final game on Friday (2-3:30 pm). Sport and Wellness gym, City Centre Campus. How to get involved: 1. Come and play with us and/or 2. Donate money: There will be a box in the gym and at MacEwan International where you can donate as much money as you can (from 1 cent to $1000...) :-) The money will go to support national programmes. All levels and types of support are equally important to Sport-in-a-Box and are greatly appreciated. Sport-in-a-Box inspires young Canadians to use the power of sport to engage with their communities in global issues that affect us all. A legacy of the 2005 UN International Year of Sport and Physical Education (IYSPE), this innovative, creative, and fun project uses sport to promote public awareness of relevant issues and emphasizes the importance of a life-long engagement in sport, physical activity and the appreciation of social-cultural diversity.
