Prom committee is a club that consists of only 11th grade students at ISK. As the name implies, this club aims to raise $10,000 by March of 2012 so that the Junior class can host the prom for the Seniors. I am the head of the fundraising committee for this club, so my job is to think up of possible fundraisers that can raise a lot of money! We mainly raise money by selling drinks at almost every school event, and so far, this had proved to be successful. Since August, we have raised about $3,000 so our aim is to raise at least $7,000 more.
On the 11th of November, International Day was held at ISK, which is an event where every student dresses up in something that represents their country and parades around the campus. This event is always attended by many parents, and all the students and teachers. Therefore, it was a great opportunity for our grade to sell drinks, and this is exactly what we did. Although it was very hectic and we had no time to take a break for more than 3 hours, it was all worth it in the end as we managed to raise 104,000 Kenyan shillings!
We are already planning various events in the coming weeks and we will hopefully have met our goal of raising $10,000 by March!
