Same-Sex Marriage campaign is Full Steam ahead!!

October 16th, 2009 | By admin

This year, the need for equality of all is shining a very important light on pursuing equality for same-sex relationships, and the rights they deserve to Same-Sex Marriage. UWS Students have jumped onboard, and are taking part in the national rally happening on the 28th of November, 1pm, infront of Sydney’s Town Hall. As socially conscious students, empowered by our learnings here at UWS, we know about the injustice being dealt to same sex couples, and we have the power to make a statement and say we want equal rights for all!

Anyone who is interested in being part of this can become part of the UWS campaign: we meet on Tuesdays, 2pm, on Bankstown campus, in Building 1, Room G.70 (The Student Union office, opposite the UWSConnect bookstore)

Coming up next week we will be running a stall at Bankstown campus, to fundraise and give people an opportunity to sign the petition; to tell the government that we need equality.

And then the following week we will be holding a movie screening and Barbeque to once again promote this cause, and give people more of a chance to ask us questions and get involved.

If you’re interested please join our facebook group…
