Let's RING A LIFE!

Hello everyone! J

It is week 9 already, how time flies? 

Counting down 9 days until our on-ground event day! Aren’t you excited? 
Just in case you don’t know, “Ring A Life” campaign will be held at Tunku Abdul Rahman University College Canteen 2 Concourse Area, 9am-5pm, from 16th – 18th July 2014 (Wednesday-Friday).




There are exhibition booths, photo booth and more exciting games that you may walk away with awesome prizes from us!! J

So, mark your calendar now and remember to come and join us for more fun during your hectic day! Oh wait, don’t forget to bring along your abandoned, unwanted old phones to donate and make contribution to saving the sea turtles too!

You might be wondering, WHY “RING A LIFE”? 
There you go.. 


“Ring a Life” was chosen as our theme as this theme clearly represents our message of recycling mobile phones to save sea turtles. A ring is typically used as a symbol of commitment, promise and dedication. Moreover, the ring also represents the “ringing” of a mobile phone, representing the call to save the marine turtles that are on the verge of extinction, before it is too late. Initially, it started as a phone recycling campaign, however Nokia has decided to include electronic gadgets such as laptops, tablets and computers as well into the list of items that could be donated.


This is the 4th consecutive year of TAR UC, Nokia-Microsoft and WWF collaborate to support the WWF-Malaysia’s sea turtle conservation program. The main sponsor of “Ring A Life” campaign is Nokia-Microsoft and the beneficiary is World Wildlife Fund (WWF) Malaysia. On top of that, Nokia-Microsoft generously pledged to donate USD$1 to WWF Malaysia’s sea turtle conservation effort for every phones, laptops and tablets collected from “Ring A Life” campaign. This is to say, the more phones, laptops and tablets you donated, the bigger the amount of donations will be made by Nokia-Microsoft to the WWF Malaysia’s sea turtles conversation program!! J

So, why are you still hesitating to put your support into action? Dig out all the abandoned, unwanted old phones you have and donate them to us! Why keep them in the drawer when they can transform a sea turtle’s life to be better? Your little effort helps sea turtle to swim further! You can be a hero to the sea turtles too!
