HCT-Dubai students succeed in collecting 2000 promises dedicated to UAE to mark its 41st National Day

This was achieved through the "I Promise You My Emirates" campaign which took place at HCT-Dubai, Women's Campus during the Celebrations of UAE's 41st national day.

The 12 meters promise wall included 2,000 promise messages written by HCT-Dubai students, staff and high-school students.

Students expressed their love towards the UAE by promise messages that said: "I promise you my Emirates to be loyal to you and President Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan and to protect the UAE as long as I live"; "I promise you my Emirates to serve you for the rest of my life."

Alia Alsumaiti, Year 4, Corporate Communications, Media Relations Coordinator for "I Promise You My Emirates" campaign said, "The campaign provided an opportunity for all UAE citizens to share their promises in the longest promise wall on how to give back to the nation on the occasion of the 41st National Day. Many promises were collected from "I Promise You My Emirates" FaceBook and Twitter accounts reaching 500 promises in less than a month."
