The Orphans’ Day is the day that honors orphans all over Egypt . It is dedicated to spread joy and happiness to all the orphans around the country . The idea of establishing that day goes back to 2004 , an initiative by “ Dar El Orman ” to educate people about orphans and their needs .
This year we're organizing the 2nd annual orphans' day on campus ,
800 ORPHANS will be invited & our job will be to put a smile on their faces ,, and make it a day they'll never forget .
How does the day go:
Once the orphans' arrive, 9 am, they're divided into TEAMS of 15 right away and breakfast is served. Every group have a unique fun name and a certain timely based program that they follow until the end of the day.
Basically, Every group will have a number of STATIONS that they will visit throughout the day for different games, sports & learning activities.
Lunch is served during midday in our own organized pergola and we end the day with a huge party where we all celebrate together :D
How do we manage to organize it:
We divide ourselves into different teams, and through orientations and induction sessions we make sure everyone know what they're supposed to do. The teams we have include but are not restricted to:
1. Reception Team
( Responsible for welcoming the orphans, handling the division of the kids, organizing the serving of both meals and managing the departure procedures )
2. Resources Team
( Throughout the day, we get lots of donations; from toys, to clothes to sweets, the responsibility of this team is to insure fair division of such resources throughout the day and to manage the resources room )
3. PR & Media Team
( Responsible for handling all interactions with any media representatives, and responsible for organizing the final party and contacting celebrities to come cover the event; have fun with the kids and participate in the party )
4. Station Leaders'
( Every STATION has 3-4 leaders who are responsible for playing with every orphans' group that visit their station, they're also responsible for managing the stations to make sure they're fully ready every time a team comes )
5. Team Leaders'
( Every TEAM has 2-3 leaders who are responsible for it throughout the day, the team leaders insure that their team is following their schedule and that they're having fun at all times :) )
What's different than last year:
We'll do our best to manage all the mistakes we did last year and improve them in order to sustain the SUCCESS of such a wonderful event.
One major change is that this year we will include some STATIONS that every TEAM has to visit that have LEARNING Content ( Experiential Learning Games; TEACHING WITH FUN ) in order to insure maximum benefit for the kids throughout the day.
Also to make sure that we get inputs from everyone, please visit this link and add any suggestions if you have in this excel sheet so we can implement them in the event:
