FUNDRAISING
Selling Paper
Weights
The students of grade 6 to 8 prepared paper
weights during their Eco Club and Community Service Activity periods in the
month of September 2015. The idols were prepared keeping in mind their utility.
They were prepared out of stones and were colourfullydecorated with pictures.
We decided to sell the paper weights to
students and teachers of the school on October 5 and 6, 2015 during the short
break time (15 minutes duration). Before
selling an announcement was made in the morning assembly informing everybody
about the fundraising event. Knowing
that the profits were going to be used for the Feeding Programme of our partner
school in Zambia, students and teachers came in large
numbers and bought the idols during the short break time.
Members
of our business team responded in the following manner:

learnt to deal with customers patiently!’ – Suvidhi Kothari
‘We
learnt to convince customers about our product!’ – NiharAnand
