Update Project Write Up by 5th March

[Eunice Yip]

Hello Leaders,

We are preparing a short write up on Enactus NTU as well as our projects so that members at the booth will be able to share with people more about us during the Open house on 8th March. 

I've included what we used during the CCA Open House below for your reference, please update your own project details accordingly by Wednesday, 5th March. 

Aside to VCB leaders, we do not have a write up on VCB during the Open house so please come up with one. Greatly appreciate that!

I'll send out a final update on the Open house soon. Thank you leaders and hope you'll have a great recess week!

Cheers,

Eunice
