Every year Sangam, the South Asian awareness student organization on the campus of UNC Chapel Hill, hosts an annual intercollegiate dance competition known as Aaj Ka Dhamaka. For the past three years, I’ve had the opportunity to serve important roles in the planning and execution of this major production. In addition, I’ve designed the shows website (www.uncakd.com) for the past three years, a new one each year. The South Asian dance competition features professional college dance teams from across the U.S. and its proceeds benefit the Mahatma Gandhi Fellowship, the first university-recognized, student-run scholarship at UNC Chapel Hill. Please visit the website and if you’re going to be in the Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill area on November 1st, 2008 I highly encourage you to attend the show. (Be sure to purchase tickets beforehand.)

Below is the event poster designed by the Sangam Publicity Committee and event details are found below.

Sangam, UNC Chapel Hill’s South Asian awareness organization would like to invite you once again to the Southeast’s premier intercollegiate dance competition, Aaj Ka Dhamaka!!!

Prepare to be amazed by the biggest AKD show to date with a venue that seats over 2200 people!

As always, the proceeds from Aaj Ka Dhamaka will benefit the Mahatma Gandhi Fellowship at UNC Chapel Hill. The fellowship was established in 1998 to give students the opportunity to plan and implement a service project that benefits the South Asian population at home and abroad. Since the fellowship’s foundation, we have been working to raise funds in order to reach a desired endownment of $125,000, which will sustain two annual scholarships of $3000. Thus far we have supported the visions of 20 fellows, and with your continued support we can make momentus progress in accomplishing our goal.
