Homework 23/3
FUNDRAISING IDEAS
Come up with 2-3 fundraising ideas that our class could do to raise money for Japan. Talk them over with family and friends - which ideas do they like and why?
If we were to do a 'wheels day' at school - what things would we need to organise? How could we run it as a fundraiser?
You can post your ideas as a comment on this blog so we can all think/discuss them before next week.
