There was much excitement recently when the first ever HUG event was held in Spain!
A group of university students were inspired after Chad Brown had given a HUG presentation, completely in Spanish, as part of the language course he is now taking in Spain.
One of the Chinese students came up with great idea to hold a fundraiser for HUG. It was an ideal opportunity for everyone to practice their spanish writing skills as they sent out invitations and made a flyer for a basketball tournament they decided to hold. Their spanish speaking skills were put to the test on the day when players, referee, timekeeper, scorer and spectators all had to converse in the local language.
Xiao Liu and Chad worked well together to get the first HUG event in Spain off the ground. Everyone had lots of fun at the basket ball tournament.
A small cake, muffin and drink stall was also held at the uni on the day. Students from right across the world enjoyed a great day of HUGging.
The day proved to be an enormous success and showed what a multi cultural world we have become. People from Spain, China, Japan, Norway, Sweden, Germany, Switzerland, France and Russia all came together to raise money for an Australian charity doing work in Uganda!
Quite amazing -Well done to everyone!
