AMESS Study Bags

AMESS - Engineering Society (2021/R3)

This semester AMESS decided to give back to our members through a sponsored Study Bag. We reached out to over 50 different companies in search of sponsorship and were welcomed with open arms. In total we received sponsorship from 12 external companies with different goodies we could provide in these study bags including the bags themselves from Rethink.

We aimed to provide these study bags to approximately 100 students however the support we were greeted with allowed us to supply free bags to over 150 students, PhD Students and other staff. These free study bags included stress relief toys, study supplies, snacks and vouchers which provided a much needed relief during stressful times.

These bags included sponsorship from the following brands, all who were tagged on our instagram and provided photos of the project thus building our external relationships; 

• Rethink
• Sals
• Carl's Junior
• Muffin Break
• Gong Cha
• Sweet as
• Oi
• The Aromatherapy Co
• NZTA
• McDonalds
• Burger King
• Burger Fuel
• ASA

We also ran a competition for the Deluxe Study Bag, this included multiple vouchers, snacks and study bits. This was awarded to the person who posted the most creative photo of themselves with their bag on Instagram tagging AMESS and was won by Gabrielle Lobo.

The receivers were extremely happy with their bags and it could be seen around the campus the fun and laughs people were having with the items such as bouncy balls.

We are aiming to provide this for more years to come especially with the newly formed relationships with companies such as Rethink.
