Food and Fun Fair : Selling cards for Alzheimer's again.

On Saturday 12th of March was our school's Food and Fun Fair. This is an event where all students, teachers and parents gather for a Mela type experience. A variety of stalls and activities are put up and basically everyone has a lot of FUN. :)

Our Alzheimer's group thought that this would a good opportunity where we could raise some funds for our activity by selling some of the beautiful cards from before. We collaboratively planned and initiated a stall where we could sell them during the event. We saw them as a very promising sales item as we'd had such success when we sold them the first time.

I think our group was really great in working together, and a special well done should go out to Radhika and Alisha of Grade 10 who went around asking people all over the fair whether they'd like to buy our cards. Their enthusiasm was really motivating. :)

By the end of the day we had managed to raise around Rs 13,000. I feel that we really couldn't have done it without our teamwork!
