Operation smile: Christmas Fundraising

This Christmas, the Operation smile club at ISK had a fundraising project where we decided to buy ornaments and have kids from kindergarten paint them, and later on sell them to their parents and other people who want to buy them. I was part of a group of 4 students that went to see the kids in kindergarten and paint the ornaments with them. 
I thought it was such a good experience, spending time with them and it was also quite funny, When I asked one of them what he wanted to paint on his christmas ornament, he said vampire; they have a lot of imagination and it was interesting to see that through their paintings. 
Each kid had 2 ornaments they could paint, and we later hung them and left them to dry.




The rest of the club later took them and hung them on a small tree, and later on sold them to the parents and whoever wanted to buy these ornaments for a good cause.
