| On
the 30 of April 2005, Foundation
Save a Russian Child participated
in the street market that is
traditionally held every year
as part of the Queen's Birthday
celebration in Amsterdam.
We set up our
stall early in the morning on
the Appollolaan in Amsterdam,
equipped with leaflets and lots
of items for sale (kindly donated
to us by numerous individuals).
The morning started nicely -
dry, warm weather. Soon many
people came out on to the streets.
Which thankfully allowed us
to make the most of this campaigning
opportunity.
We distributed leaflets, sold
all kinds of things (second
hand clothes, CD's, books, crockery
etc.) and, of course, tried
to tell people about our cause.
Thanks to the
great motivation and effort
of few volunteers who always
support the foundation, the
action attracted enough attention
to be a success.
The amount raised on the day
totaled191 Euro.
All the money collected will
be directed to the children
in Russian and Ukrainian hospitals.
We would like to express the
gratitude to our enthusiastic
volunteers - Penka Rousseva
& Jana Petrova - and to
everyone who contributed to
make this campaign a success.
