BIM Students Support Volunteerism
Business Information Management Department 4th year students, in the context of the
Small Group and Team Communication course have chosen to work with the Foundation to Help and Educate Mentally Handicapped Persons (ZİÇEV - Zihinsel Yetersiz Çocukları Yetiştirme ve Koruma Vakfı) located at Gölbaşı. Throughout the semester, they have visited ZİÇEV at least 5 times, have spent 
time with those underprivileged people, organized various indoor and outdoor activities, and have looked for ways to raise money for that foundation. As a class, they have formed 4 teams, each consists of 6 students and each team's performance has been evaluated by the way they raise awareness and contact with ZİÇEV's clients. Students are highly motivated to contribute to the well-being of society, which is one of the main concerns of our century. Each student experiences being a member of a team that helps a part of a society that is most often neglected and also gains new insights, new awareness about an entirely different world than his or her own.
