SARGAM’16 FUND RAISER
Sargam is the cultural state level, inter-college fest that is held every year at New Horizon College of Engineering. This year’s theme was Military. The Leo club of NHCE seized this opportunity to raise funds. The various ideas that we came up with were- selling mineral water, painting the Indian flags, temporary tattoos and selling cupcakes a two-day fest.
On the first day, we started off the day by requesting all the other various stall owners to place the Leo donation boxes, and help us by requesting their customers to make a donation for the cause. At our stall we had donations, tattooing, painting of India flag. We also gathered attention with the water bottles. By mid-day we had gathered quite a lot of attention and funds.
The Leo volunteers were chosen in batches of three to contribute their time and marketing skills for duration of two hours. At the end of the first day we made a collection of thirteen thousand rupees (13,000).
On the second day of Sargam we could gather more attention because of the yummy cupcakes baked by our volunteers. All the other activities continued as well.
We had also requested all our emcee’s to urge the crowd to make their donations at the nearest Leo club donation boxes. At the end of the second day we had collected nineteen thousand rupees (19,000). Which made a total of thirty thousand rupees (32,000). This was a grand success for us Lions!
