BHM: MELANIGHT 2020

This year’s Melanight included a variety of cultural performances from several African and Caribbean cultural groups in the form of dance, fashion, and poetry and an open dance floor.

A charity raffle was conducted throughout the night, giving guests the opportunity to win amazing prizes. The proceeds of the charity raffle benefitted the Build Africa charity, which uses education as a means of combatting poverty in African countries.

Charity Date Auction VOL. 2

This was ACSA’s second “Building Love” Charity Date Auction, an “auction” allowing all University of Calgary students to bid on potential dates (energetic student volunteers) in support of the Build Africa charity organization. Build Africa uses education as a means to support the end of poverty in Africa, and a percentage of all proceeds from this event went to this charity. After the event, UofC’s Den and Black Lounge were booked as a hang-out location for all dates and auction winners.

Speak Your Truth VOL. 3

This has become a staple ACSA event over the last few years, and allows ACSA members to discuss and share their opinions and feelings about a variety of topics. These topics range from serious social issues, to relationship deal breakers, to whether or not leaving the crust behind on a pizza is a big deal. Only one person can speak at time by using the power of the “speaking stick” (pictured below). This is always a very energetic, sometimes heated, and always popular ACSA event.

Sports Tournament

This event, held towards the end of the academic year, was an opportunity to bring all ACSA members together to play, exercise, and take a break before exam season. With games like basketball, dodgeball and soccer, there were lots of winners, fun, and music throughout this sporting tournament.
