HeartSBA – Social Committee

Welcome

There are many ways to help others. The HeartSBA by HSBA welcomes all students who want to get involved in social activities during their studies and work life.

The Student Social Committee at HSBA supports charitable organizations through raising funds and arranging events for donations. At times, the team also provides help to the organizations via manpower.

We support external organizations but also our own students. Therefore, mental health, empowerment, diversity & equality are topics we raise awareness for.

Every action of ours is approached with the guiding principle in mind “Education is key!”. The choice of our partner organizations and social causes we support, as well as the distribution of information among peers.

With a focus on sustainable operations and as part of a Fairtrade university, we take reference to environmental, social & governance implementation.

"Let’s make a difference."
