The bake sale!!! xD :)

On February 10th, 2011, we had a bake sale, that was our first attempt to raise money for a certain event, and a certain group of people (The orphanage). We raised around 3,500 dinars to take the orphanage ice skating. We sold lollipops, cookies and muffins, and for the first time, we think we did pretty well. The bake sale was held on the front porch in the International School of Belgrade. We hope to proceed with the ice-skating in the next few days. We hope to achieve our goal, which is to make the lives of the orphanage children more happy and carefree :).

What is AIMS?

AIMS stands for Action in Middle School. It is a class where we try and help our school, community, and maybe even the country that we are in in any way possible. We try to reduce poverty, help people with special needs, children from the orphanage, and the overall environment. We go to the International School of Belgrade, and are seventh and eighth graders. Our teacher is Mr. Vladimir. There are different ways we try to help the community and our school. We organize events to raise money for different people, and we try to make the lives of the kids from the orphanage and hospital happier, by taking them skating, organizing a basketball game, etc. So far, we have organized a bake sale in our school to raise money to take the children from the orphanage ice-skating. We advertised the event by making posters, and we raised about 3, 500 dinars. We sold lollipops, muffins, cookies, etc. We didn't take the kids ice-skating, yet, but we are planning to do that in the near future. Another idea we had was to organize a friendly basketball game for the orphans. We didn't yet raise money for that, but again, it is just one of the many ideas that we had.
