[7] Cultural Festival

Oh my God! 
I totally forgot to tell it! :) 
Local AIESEC chapter organized the cultural festival with volunteers from different countries who came to Omsk to participate in social projects. And there was a crafts and food fair as well. 
Now I have to confess that I'm pretty good at baking muffins :D 

So I participated in the fair selling home-made muffins in order to collect money for the Gamechanging Indonesia campaign! And it worked out. I collected not a big sum of money but still something for unprivileged kids...

Here is the video-invitation to festival (in Russian)

[6] 2 days before Moscow

So the Gamechanging Indonesia campaign is coming to an end and we collect only half of the sum we planned. But it's okay! 
As we stated in the campaign - the main thing is to buy English textbooks. And we did it! We ordered the books! Unfortunately we had to cut the quantity because we didn't reach the goal. 
We have chosen the Longman Young Children's Picture Dictionary textbook for several reasons: firstly, there are illustrations there and it is easy to understand for kids. Secondly, there is a CD there to explain the right prononciation. Thirdly, Longman books are high quality. 
Here is a book:

And also we ordered the cultural souvenirs to present Russia and Russian culture to the children :)


We will take pictures of everything as soon as we get it and post it here for you to see :)

We still can buy more books for children if we get enougn money. The campaign ends in 60 hours (in the evening of 6th of September (Moscow time). So you have a chance to change the situation and contribute! 
The link is here

And now is the time to say thank you to those who already contributed to our dream! 
Dear Mariya, Alina, Nadezhda, Yuliya, Ankit, Anna and Nadezhda, thank you so much for your help! We appriciate this very much! And I'm personally so happy to mention so many names of people who care, people who believes in us!

[5] Fascinating things around us

Today is an amazing day! 

It's time to say thank you to Ajuma, Vika, Emi and Artem for their contributions!
And I have a special thank you for one person, Natasha, who impressed me a lot today. I received a message from that girl where she said that wants to donate a textbook and money for the unprivileged children. Soon we met personally and she was telling to me how many good things she did and how she eager to help those who were not lucky enough in this life. 


This campaign is just a campaign but people, thoughts and behaviours that are behind this are beautiful. 
Guys, you inspire me a lot to continue this and play to win. For those kids, for first steps in changing the world together with all of you! Thank you!

[4] Moving the elephant 2.0

Hey, guys! 

It's been a while since I wrote here last time. 
We still continue the preparation for the internship and promotion of the crowdfunding campaign. It's moving quite slowly despite we need just 100 people contributing 5$ each. 
5$ - a cup of coffee
5$ - a dinner in fast-food restaurant
5$ - a business-lunch
5$ -  a cinema ticket
And 5$ - help to unprivileged children. 

If only we have 100 people who are ready to refuse one cup of coffee and invest this money to our campaign,  we will achieve the goal really fast! 
So please if you read it, go to the page of our campaign and maybe you'll get interesed in it or in any perk ;)

And I wanted to thank amazing people who already contributed to our dreams! Thank you so much, Olga, Vika, Yura and Sveta! This means a lot! 
And a big thanks to cool guys from the project ВЫШКА, who helped us with promotion. This will be helpful for those who doesn't want to miss important events in education and self-development in Omsk. 

Thank you! The fact that we have soulmates makes me really happy!
