Ann's Lil World: Sales-Sales

Our school has just hosted a great fundraising project called "1-Malaysiathon" today.
Both teachers, staffs and parents set up stalls selling various produts...from food to drinks to books...ect.  It was a joint venture between the school and the PTA (PIBG in Bahasa Malaysia). Just in case some of you who don't know these acronyms
PTA~Parents Teachers Association
PIBG~Persatuan Ibu Bapa dan Guru

Fortunately the weather was fine and as early as 7.30 a.m. the school was bustling with activities. The objective was to collect as much money as possible to upgrade our school amenities and to run our many projects thru-out the year.
Teachers and parents had a great time manning their stalls selling array of food & drinks. Not only food but several counters selling old clothes, books and exhibitions.
There was also a booth to request songs, which provided 'great' music for the day. Not forgetting the games stalls which was a hit among the students.

Yours truly, took the opportunity to collect some funds to upgrade the library(Pusat Sumber Sekolah) with new curtains, carpets and all.  Came up with the idea ... to sell stationery and board games as my target was the students @ children.  Days earlier, I made a survey at a nearby wholesale factory which I could purchase cheap "Made in China" stationery and puzzles, board games. Cute Disney cartoons would definitelys attract school children.

True to my words, I managed to clear off ALL my products in less than 2 hours. Managed to a make a little profit (RM200 plus)....hey not bad for a 2 hour sale.

All my efforts were well paid off as I managed to collect a substantial sum which would be use for the upgrading of my library which is in dire need of a new set of curtain and table cloth.

Me and my colleagues had been working very hard to prepare for this big event. It was indeed a very tiring day for all, nevertheless it was for a worthy cause.  Had a good time and most importantly mine and our objective was met.
