Today for our middle three classes a group of us went uptown to go carol singing to raise money for Gambia. Some of us wore t-shirts with the Gambia Youth Project on it so passerby's would know what we were fundraising for. We had a booklet of different songs and a tambourine for the beat. It was very fun (although I can't sing very well), and we managed to raise a lot of money. One of my classmates even started dancing to encourage people to donate. It was very funny but it worked. After lunchtime I went back to class but others stayed on to sing some more. I am glad we get to raise money for Gambia even though we wont get to actually go out there ourselves because of the ebola crisis. But they still need our funds for their projects. I hope our year gets to do a lot more fun events like this to raise more money.
Reece dancing to help raise some more people. Most passerby's found him quite entertaining and donated generously.
