AUC Students Touched Little Hearts with Their Social Responsibility Projects.

Under the leadership of Dr. Emel Yılmaz, Lecturer at the Department of Visual Communication Design, American University of Cyprus (AAC), the project “A Hand of Hope from AAC to Children”, carried out in the 2024-2025 Summer Term within the scope of the Community Service Practices (THU) course, brought hope to children studying at the Cyprus Turkish Child Protection Agency (KTÇEK).

KAU Rector Prof. Dr. Gökçe Keçeci emphasized the social responsibility mission of the university in his evaluation of the project: “As the American University of Cyprus, we care about being at the forefront not only with academic success but also with projects that contribute to society. This meaningful work carried out with great devotion by Prof. Dr. Emel Yılmaz and our student Gizem Çevik has been one of the best examples of university-community cooperation. Such partnerships with non-governmental organizations are of great importance in terms of strengthening social solidarity.”
