This winter, the
volunteers from 10 E decided to organize a Charity fund raise before
Christmas.
We were inspired
by the Halloween event that took place in our college and seeing that
the most enthusiastic customers were the little ones, we thought it might be
even better to go to a secondary school.
We chose
School no. 1 and School no. 9 and went there 2 weeks ago. We sold sweets,
cards, handmade jewelries, tickets for a raffle and taught kids how to
make origami snowflakes. They could also choose face painting and, last but not
least, take a picture with Santa and tell him all their wishes.
First, we went
to School no. 1, right before Saint Nicholas and we had a such great success in
selling our goods that after only 3 breaks we had to bring some more.
We are grateful
for all the support we had from our teachers, families, children and the hosts
that encouraged their pupils to help us. I was impressed that they were so
willing that they even donated some money and toys.
Now, we are very
pleased we can help a 9 year-old boy who suffers from leukemia and we are
looking forward to visiting some other schools.
We wish you all
a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

team
