Students of the English Elites step into the new semester with confidence, creativity, and a shared passion for language, ready to turn fresh beginnings into meaningful stories and academic excellence.

The English Elites Organization welcomed the second semester by launching Project Supplies, a student-led initiative that distributed free school materials to students at the Old Valentine Building, second floor, on January 12, 2026. The activity aimed to assist students with essential academic needs while promoting an inclusive campus environment.

Through a mini booth setup, the organization provided bookmarks, red, blue, and black ballpens, stickers, and candies to passing students. Members actively encouraged students to take part, emphasizing that the supplies were freely given and accessible to all.

Beyond material support, the initiative fostered brief but meaningful interactions as organization members welcomed students back and checked in on their well-being. Many recipients expressed appreciation, noting that even simple school materials were helpful as classes resumed.

Despite supplies running out earlier than expected due to strong student turnout, Project Supplies was considered a success. The initiative highlighted the value of student-led service programs in strengthening campus solidarity and reaffirmed the English Elites Organization’s commitment to service, inclusivity, and community engagement.
