PUCS







Penang Undergraduate Community Service (PUCS), founded on year 1997 with the vision and mission as below:

1. To elevate the consciousness and the standard of education among the community
2. To elevate the mindset and learning ability of the community and our members.
3. To instill and elevate volunteerism and community consciousness, thus contribute to the community.

PUCS members have their own internal training before get into the community. Every year, PUCS liase with the local community to do educational type of volunteering work in their village. PUCS usually stay in the villagers' house by 'Adoption Program'.

They have variety activities such as recycling, gotong-royong, paper DIY, making garbage enzyme, sign language class, health awareness talk and so on...

They do not get sponsorship. Thus, every member have to pay themselves to volunteer.
PUCS members pay from their own pocket to volunteer, how about you?

hi
I'm a student in USM and am in my 2nd year. I am currently taking up the class of Globalization, Cyber Culture and Future Studies from the School of Social Sciences. In this class, we are to take up a social issue and do something about it. Our team would like to inquire if we can work together with healthy campus to boost the awareness to the current problems of littering on campus grounds. We would also like to deal with the lack of rubbish bin issue in campus. Currently we are blogging (saynotolitter.blogspot.com) and trying to get the people's attention. We hope we can also do more and that we can make a real impact not just in the university alone but out of campus as well. Any guidelines or suggestions on how we can go about? Is there a chance for us to work together with healthy campus?
