About Bond-Aid

Bond-Aid was established in December 2011 by a group of five enthusatic Bond students. The mission of the organisation is to encourage and provide an opportunity for Bond students to participate in global aid work. Our commitments can be highlighted through our previous projects in Cambodia and Sri Lanka. In addition we are continuing our work to help developing countries grow economically and socially. Bond-Aid members believe that it is important to contribute to our world by ensuring that every person has an equal access to food, education and health.

Bond-Aid provides students with various opportunities to administrate these forms. Some student volunteers have the opporutnity to work in the local communites in either the orphangeor, hosptials or community schools. In the orphanages students are able to have a culture connection with the orphans.While others enjoy the opportunity of working in local schools teaching English. Both of these opportunites creates a diverse learning experience in which the orphans, school children and Bond students can benefit.

Bond med students volunteer have the opportunity to work in the local hospital alongside doctors and nurses. These students are able to utilise the knowledge they’ve gained during their studies to assist and aid in the limited amount of medical resource.

This December 2013, Bond-Aid will be volunteering in Kathmandu, Nepal for four weeks , providing assistance in hospitals, schools and other community development projects. We will be providing aid in the form of education, community infrastructure, social support and health care.

Past Expeditions: Cambodia 2011-2012

The small island off of India , Sri lanka colliquley known as the “ The tear drop of India” became the chosen destination for the 2nd annual Bond Aid expedition. Despite 26 years of conflict, Sri Lanka has become of the fastest growing economies with a lotot of rich culture and resources to offer.

Bond-Aid wanted to provide an opportunity for Bond students to experience what Sri Lanka has to offer. Through their aid work,they would also engage in an exchange of language and culture. Which would continue to broaden their horizon.

Similar to the selection used during the inaugural expedition to Cambodia, Bond-Aid committee members selected a wide range of applicants ready for an adventure and to volunteer .16 enthusiastic volunteers from many different faculties were selected to the accompany the trip leaders. These applicants similar to the last participants had an excuberant of abilities and skills to offer. Weekly group meetings were held to plan sponsorship, resource donations and fundraising initiatives.

The journey to Sri Lanka was long but worthwhile. Through the success of the fundraising and sponsorship, Bond -Aid was able to contribute a significant amount of resources such as clothing and supplies to the children. The student volunteers were placed in variety of locations where there assistance was greatly needed such as :

• volunteering in a boys and babies orphanages

• teaching monks

• teaching various subjects to the village children

• Placement at the Lakeside Adventist Hospital and Laksal Ayuveda Hospital

Each week members from each placement swapped placements enabling everyone to work in a variety of areas and positions that interested them.

Following the return to Bond University, Bond -Aid wanted to continue raising funds and resources for the school children and hospital in Sri Lanka. Therefore in collaboration with the Bond University Medical Students ‘ MedBall’ Committee, the final contribution of $ 9000, was raised. A conseses from both Bond Aid and MedBall committees believed a monetary donation to Kandy’s first cancer hospital would be effective. This would be a sign of a lasting improvement in the community.

Out of 50 applicantion , 17 students exhibited the suitable qualities that Bond -Aid needed for the first expedition to Cambodia. The 17 students were from a wide range of degrees, expertise and skills. During the preparation for the expedition , Bond-aid held four fund-raising events which included raffles, cake stalls and hot-dog eating contests.

The arrival to Samroang, Cambodia was an explosion of excitement, eargness and optisim. The group wasn’t phased about the dangers posed by land mines nor Malaria. They accepted it as a challenge that they needed to overcome similiarly to what the locals endure throughout their daily lives. The student volunteers dis-bursed into about 5 different groups that focused in their area of interest.

Some of the highlighted ventures that had taken place included :

• Attending the schools from 8am-4pm, the student volunteers engaged in many different activities with the students. These activites would help to encourage the local students to learn English in a fun environment. In addition to teaching English, lessons were taught on the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

• Other students volunteered at the orphanges. This was a great opportunity for them to engage in cultural exchange with the kids. Many of the students on the trip were unfamiliar with Cambodian culture.However through their interaction with the orphans they were able to learn a subtstanial amount.

•The Medical student volunteers had the opportunity to work at the local hospital. A typical day included working alogngside the doctors, tending to patients. The students volunteers were able to use the knowl-edge they used in their medical classes . This created a hands-on learning experience for the medical student volunteers

When the student volunteers weren’t voluntering , they had time to learn more about Samroang and the other regions of Cambodia. In Samroang the group helped the loacls with their Christmas celebration and acquired more language lessons in Khmwe. Trips were taken to Phnom Peh, Siem Reap and Battambang this helped to enhance the groups cultural experience.

After the completion of the expedition to Samroang, Bond Aid continued to support the school, orphange and hospital. The fundraising continued to maintain the connection , experience and aid. After a couple of weeks after various fundraising events the goal was met.

Bond-Aid’s Sponsorship Program

Sponsorship Program Summary

As Bond-Aid organisation continues to grow sponsorship becomes ever more crucial to the club’s longevity. Sponsorship is vital to maintaining the unique experience that Bond-Aid offers students. Bond students are able to have the opportunity to volunteer and gain a valuable culture experience. It is also an invaluable resource that allows us to expand the scope of our fund-raising within the community, both on campus and off. It is our wish to work closely with all interested to form mutually beneficial

agreements, fostering long-term corporate partnership.

Benefits of Bond-Aid’s Sponsorship Program

Sponsorship with Bond-Aid provides an excellent avenue for corporations to expand on their marketing opportunities, and to present themselves to a diverse, academically stimulated and hardworking student body. As Bond is a fast-tracked university, Bond students graduate sooner and therefore are career-ready younger than other university students. Consequently, Bond students generally have a mature approach to life and look towards large corporations that can provide stability to them after their time at Bond. Bond-Aid endeavours to provide each sponsor with a multitude of advertising and promotional opportunities, as well as providing on-campus events to be present at. By sponsoring Bond-Aid, your business will be demonstrating its interest in, and commitment to, the development of globally aware young leaders and dedicated workers across a broad range of professions. It is through your sponsorship, and support, that Bond-Aid can provide Bond students with opportunities to begin enacting the global changes they hope to bring about later in their careers, as well as giving them a platform from which they may learn many of the skills they will implement in their professional life after Bond. Therefore, sponsorship provides a valuable opportunity for your company to secure loyal and reliable, future clients.

Furthermore, Bond-Aid’s program provides the perfect opportunity for your company to do its bit to help the global community, providing sorely needed aid to developing nations around the world.
