With engaging activities, expert advice, and valuable health resources, the event motivated students, faculty, and staff, creating a lively and supportive environment for wellness.  

The event featured a wide range of vendors, fitness experts, and health institutions, each providing access to valuable health resources and interactive activities. Attendees had the opportunity to engage with representatives from leading gyms, wellness centers, clinics, and hospitals, who offered free consultations, health assessments, exclusive discounts, and giveaways. 

Throughout the week, students participated in activities like fitness challenges, wellness quizzes, and strength tests. These activities encouraged teamwork and friendly competition while promoting healthy habits. Expert advice on nutrition, fitness, and overall wellness further enriched the experience, making the event both enjoyable and informative.

Students were highly engaged, exploring new health tips and fitness challenges, while benefiting from the medical advice available at the booths. This event would not have been possible without the dedicated support of our partners, who contributed to making Health Week a success.”
