WoW!!!!

Well, I would say that the charity sale was an AMAZING success!!!  You guys did a fantastic job. I think we'll hold off and not tell the shelter people how much money we raised UNTIL they come to school.  Won't they be surprised!

You MUST do this again next year, and I think the classes downstairs would be willing to help!

Hugo, Taylor - the game ideas were great!

Thank you to all the students who helped - those who signed up and those who just showed up!

Hey, I think it would be good to have a poster to attach to the February 26 newsletter. I know everyone will be on vacation next week, but can you three plan your posters and have one ready to go for the newsletter? I believe Mrs. Fredericks will need it by Tuesday or Wednesday, February 23 or 24.  Please look at the details in the other posting. You will need to include collection dates, type of stuff that can be sold, and of course, the sale date!

Question

What should we do with the extra stuff that doesn't sell?  Anybody have an idea?

Charity Sale Details - info needed for posters and articles

Here are some details you'll need to know for the Charity Sale:

Sale is Friday, March 19, in the Library at QSI Kosice International School.
(not sure what time to start, as that part will be up to teachers to organize, but I suspect things will start around 9 am). Students should bring money with them and, of course, adults are invited to come and shop!

Families should prepare their donations, which can be:
Toys, books, CDs or DVDs, household goods, stuffed animals, food and groceries - almost ANYTHING that is in good shape and clean.
There will also be baked goods for sale, prepared by QSI students.

During the week of March 8-12, students and parents can bring their stuff to the Library. If people cannot get it to the Library by then, then the donation coordinators will go and pick them up on Saturday, March 13.

Last year, I believe we raised more than 200 euros. Wouldn't it be great if we could raise even more?!?

Charity Sale NOW in PROCESS!
