Homeless Project Update

I have mentioned in one of my previous posts that together with Polinas and Alyona, I have been working on a fund raising project to support the homeless in Moscow. This week, as an encouragement for people to donate money, we have set up a competition on which class would be able to collect the most coins. We decorated 7 bottles/jars with foil and numbers for each year group so that the students could drop their coins in. In the first couple of days the idea proved to be a success.

By the end of this activity we can proudly say that we’ve raised over 35000 rubles in coins. It’s incredible to think how a small donation from every student added up to that! 

I will keep posting about where and how that money was allocated in later posts.
