The Couch turns five years old

RNIS was invited to the Couch party by Couch Melbourne

The Couch had its sleepover last night where there was heaps of games and free foods and performances.

Five years ago when I started uni there was lots and lots of International students being exploited and bashed. Some were being racially abused. Lots of Indians were being bashed.

The Couch began when a Mauritius student was homeless and sleeping under a bridge. He had sold many things including his phone at Cash Converters. It was here that he seeked help from the Salvation Army. Then it was when the Couch was formed.

It was also then that Meld was formed.

Five years later it is going strong with many parties and events for students. It was here that the Couch won its first award.

Thus their hard work was celebrated with a big party and a huge turnout. There was hot chocolate

Many thanks to the Couch for the invite and I hope you stay around for many years to come.
