We had out third meeting yesterday where we split up into different committees, I am in the fundraising committee. After we got into our committees Ms. Sawant asked all of the committees to elect committee heads, luckily I was elected for the committee head.
After our meeting, Mr. Paul asked all of the committee heads to stay after so we could make a plan for what our main goals were for the year. For fundraising as I discussed with my group we have decided to have several bake sales this year and in the second semester we are going to host a event where all the money will go to various proceeds such as our solar panel fund and also various Kenyan organizations. Another fundraising idea that we were going to use was the possibility of doing Holiday grams before the December Break, where we would order candy from the States and would sell it and all the proceeds would also go to the solar panel fund.
As you can possibly see one of our biggest goals for this year is to raise enough money to help buy solar panels for the new common building that is going to be built in the next couple of years. We hope as a group to leave our green footprint instead of a carbon one.
