My Project
For the Asian Culture Club (ACC), we are throwing a Lunar New Year (LNY) Celebration themed on the award-winning Korean drama Squid Game, whose season 2 is out now. Our School, BINcA, is the only public school in Boston that is 100% immigrant students, with over 30+ countries represented. Our club is the only cultural club that is consistently cross-cultural, with students from Vietnam, the Philippines, Haiti, the DR, and Cape Verde--this is their idea of how to make school fun and educational and I want to bring it to fruition! We don't have many Asian students and only have one Asian adult in the building, so we need all the support we can get!
With the items in the cart, student leaders will create masks to cosplay as game guards and recreate and facilitate some famous Squid Game mini games, for example: tug of war, gonggi (Korean dice game), ddakji (paper square flipping game), red light green light.
They will also decorate the auditorium with lanterns, and Chinese paper cuttings! The items can help our club members to push their creative minds and practice facilitating a multi-part fun carnival for peers while also teaching them about Lunar New Year and its significance to the immigrant populations that they belong to. I want our club members to become great event organizers and also great leaders! (We will also need to buy food/compensate our low-income families to prepare food, and buy other LNY specific red envelopes and props not available through DonorsChoose.)
Thank you for making this dream come to life. (written by members of BINcA's ACC and edited by Mr. Ja-Hon)
More than half of students from low‑income households
