MBS Team won the Top Fundraiser Award in Inter-school MBA Charity Challenge and broke the Guinness World Records

Congratulations to our V Care Team for winning the Top Fundraiser Award in the Operation Santa Claus (OSC) 2014 Inter-school MBA Charity Challenge and breaking the Guinness World Records.

Jointly organized by South China Morning Post and Radio Television Hong Kong, the OSC 2014 Challenge aims to encourage MBA students to unleash their creativity and business savvy to raise money for the needy in Hong Kong and China.

Apart from MBS, other participating top business schools include HKU, HKUST, CUHK and others. In the final analysis, the MBS V Care Team excelled themselves and deservedly took home the Top Fundraiser Award. The team also broke the Guinness World Records by building the tallest cupcake tower in the world, making history in the process.

Held to support Operation Santa Claus’s annual MBA challenge, this was a clear labour of love led by six students of Manchester Global MBA Part-time Programme . The results were immediate and astounding – members of the public, as well as representatives from charitable organizations, donated immediately, getting cupcakes in the process, with leftovers being donated to Foodlink and Foodangel. Perpetuating the spirit of Christmas giving and of ethical business, this was an event that was as noble as it was fun and festive.
