Welcome to ELSA Bytes, our newsletter for, by and of ELSAs.
Formed in 2014, this year ELSA completes 10 years. Over the past decade it has
become a vibrant platform which has harnessed the collective power of the
alumna network and brought them together successfully. LSR graduates have
amazing collective experience and together with their knowledge, success,
wisdom and resources have been able to benefit each other.
|

|
In this year of #ELSA@10 we will continue with
key objectives of the founders through a
calendar of professional, cultural & social
events; initiatives to benefit the community
while providing ongoing mentorship and
support to those who need it. To kickstart the
first of the events, we organised a talk on
financial empowerment in May.
This newsletter functions as a channel to keep
you all updated with what’s happening. Going
forward, we have decided to make ELSA Bytes
more interactive by inviting contributions from
ELSA members. These could be short clips on
achievements, events, milestones. Do reach out
on news@lsralumna.org
Please help spread the word, bolster our
membership drive and encourage more alumni
to become members, now at a reduced fee.
Together, we can make a real difference as
ELSAs. Thank you for your continued support.
Enjoy ELSA Bytes!
