AIDS Day
We could have some games where there are prizes so more people will participate. It would also be nice if we had sponsors, so we could have something like a lucky draw. We could have a bakesale, and we could aslo sell other things like red ribbons and red wristbands.

Introduction to Global Issues
Some of the current global issues are: global warming, poverty, racism, and inequality. Global warming is a big issue because our Earth is getting hotter and hotter due to the bad choices we have made in the past. We have neglected to care about our precious resources, and not taking care of trash properly has led us to panicking and suddenly raising awareness against global warming. Poverty is a huge problem, always have, and hopefully will not be. Many people die of starvation, while some people just have way more than the necessary. Some people have a pile of things that they haven't and never will use, while sadly enough one little thing in that pile could help someone's life. Racism has been a long problem since the past, and while it has improved over the years, it is still active. Every day there are people who get judged just because they are slightly 'different'. Racism can be part of inequality. Inequality is a very broad subject, and it has gotten better. However still there are plenty of cases where girls can't get in to school, someone from a different race is bullied, the poor starves, etc. We should care because it is going to be our problem soon. We are the next generation, and these problems are going to be for us to solve. Also these issues are happening in the world where we live in, so nothing's going to change if we don't do anything about it.
