Water Project: Week 4

In my latest blog post on the water project, (water project: week 3), I was telling you how we were planning to do a lot that week. For example we said that we would:

1. Put the facts inside the balloons and tie the string on.
2. Get all materials for our art class.
3. Handout the balloons and flyers in Great World City.
4. Send out the email for sponsors on the climb-a-thon-.

From that day on we accomplished a lot of things:

1. We put the facts inside the balloons an tied and tied the string on. (This process was shown on another blogpost, that I posted earlier.)
2. We went to Great World City yesterday, and handed out all the balloons and flyers, educating the people about the water crisis.
3. We started our art class, and unfortunately today is our last day :(
4. We sent out the email for sponsors for the stair-a-thon-.

 All we have left is to actually climb the stairs in our stair-a-thon, which we plan on doing today (later in the afternoon!)

We are almost done with our water project and so far we have raised $2,000+

Here are some photos of us in Great World City!

Going to Great World City and trying to talk to people was hard at first, but after a while we learned the tricks:
1. Say that you AREN'T selling anything.

2. If they don't want to talk keep on following them and talk and walk.

3. Give the kids balloons and while the kids are looking at the balloon talk to the parents about the crisis.

4. Don't be shy.
5.  Have fun!
