UWI Fete
Escape to Paradise
UWI Fete presents
their annual all-inclusive with the theme
Cuba – Escape to Paradise.
The UWI Fete is the cornerstone of
The University
of the West Indies Development and Endowment Fund
(UWIDEF)
as proceeds from the fete go towards UWI Fete
2015, bursaries to deserving UWI students across all seven
faculties of the institution.
Since inception, the fete as well as the UWI Golf Classic
has facilitated the award of more than 3,000 bursaries by
UWIDEF.
Pro Vice-Chancellor and Campus Principal,
Professor Clement Sankat
said that the success of The
UWI Development and Endowment Fund is largely due
to the steadfast dedication of
The UWI Fete Committee.
He noted that it is through their work that the UWIDEF
continues to provide the young people of Trinidad and
Tobago and the region with opportunities for higher
education despite the challenging economic environment
nationally, regionally and internationally. He also saluted the
patrons for their continued support of the fete, which is set
to return in January 2017. Here is a look back at a good time.
