WIT electronic engineering students recently ran a table quiz in association with the School of Engineering to raise funds for the Solas Centre, Waterford.
A total of 270 euro was raised and this was presented to Ann Marie Power, fundraising co-ordinator, at the Solas Centre on the 2nd of June 2016. This was the third year that the quiz was ran by students and these activities have raised in excess of €1000.00 for the Solas Centre.
