STEPS / IMPORTANT
POINTS
FOR ORGANISING
SCHOOL to SCHOOL CAMPAIGN
-
Ideal time - Anytime..
the fact remains that we are asking for wastage which people
have plenty. Especially soon after the present session is over
and the next starts as most of the students discard their old
uniforms, stationery, water bottles etc. or the time when they
change to winter/summer clothing after the break. But it’s
an ongoing exercise as they keep discarding a lot of material
in the middle of the session also. We have to look for the events
in the schools with which we can motivate them to participate
like Independence day, teacher’s day, festivals, school
day etc..
-
In the starting of new session it works very well as parents
are motivated to bring their old stuff when they come to buy
new. They find it very convenient as right outside the shop
in the school premises they find GOONJ collection boxes.
-
Awareness - There are
various ways of spreading awareness. We address assemblies,
put up awareness exhibitions, participate in PTMs. There are
informative leaflets, which we give to every child through the
school. School kids are motivated to develop posters and address
students. Ex students are motivated to go back to their schools
and talk about it..
-
Communication material -
All the publicity material like Posters, Banners or a small
leaflets will be given atleast a week before so that students
will be well informed about the event and can properly participate
as well.
- Transport
- As GOONJ.. doesn’t have any
financial support, we would appreciate if school can take care
of transportation of material to our store at Sarita Vihar. In
case of any problem GOONJ.. will take responsibility of this also.
-
Financial - We don’t
ask for big cash donations but we motivate children just to give
one to five rupee a month (optional not mandatory). This way we’ll
not only be able to have some money for the expenses on collection,
sorting, packing & distribution but we’ll be able to
spread our work in many more schools. You can install GOONJ donation
boxes and motivate kids to put coins on a regular interval or
on some special days like Birthday etc..
- Newspaper
day (NPD) : As one of the steps towards making this programme
a self-sufficient programme, we are working on the concept of
Newspaper day. The idea is to mark a day every month in every
school where the students are asked to bring atleast five old
newspapers or magazine from home. By the sheer strength of school
this can generate a substantial amount to partly fund this project.
-
Feedback - SCHOOL
to SCHOOL is a concept of building up relationships, instead
of just collecting the material. To maintain this and making it
more stronger GOONJ.. will provide
you details of the beneficiary schools and their students along
with relevant photographs after the distribution.
This will help a student, parents and the school to understand
that what and how much difference have they been able to make
and how can they support them in future also.
