SEGi recently orchestrated an extraordinary initiative on 28 February 2024, with the launch of their “Zero Hunger Event.” This collaborative endeavour brought together students, faculty, and community members, showcasing SEGi’s unwavering commitment to tackling food insecurity head-on.
Led by the School of Hospitality and Tourism Management, this event showcased the remarkable compassion and culinary prowess of SEGi’s Diploma in Culinary students under the guidance of Chef Faizal and Chef Solihah. Their dedication shone as they prepared diverse nutritious meals to nourish both body and soul, leaving an indelible impact on the local community.
The event’s impact was profound, with the aroma of freshly cooked meals permeating the air as culinary students worked tirelessly to ensure that no one in the community went hungry. Every dish was crafted meticulously, from hearty soups to delectable desserts, embodying SEGi’s ethos of excellence in all endeavours.
SEGi’s generosity extended beyond serving meals to the homeless; they also extended support to Samaritan Hope Home, a local shelter aiding those in need. Through their efforts, SEGi sent an abundance of food items, further alleviating hunger and offering solace to those in the shelter, reflecting SEGi’s ethos of community engagement and social responsibility.
The Zero Hunger Event was a powerful reminder of the collective impact achievable through community engagement, highlighting SEGi’s pivotal role in fostering empathy and social responsibility among future leaders. It underscored SEGi’s dedication to creating a more inclusive and compassionate society, transcending campus boundaries to effect meaningful change.
As the event concluded, the palpable sense of fulfilment and camaraderie among participants underscored the profound impact of small acts of kindness. SEGi’s Zero Hunger Event was undeniably a resounding success, exemplifying their commitment to addressing real-world challenges with innovation and compassion, inspiring others to join the fight against hunger and envision a future where no one goes to bed hungry.
