How to transform the birthday celebration into a fundraising activity and make a primary school student’s dream come true?

如何将生日的庆祝方式升级转化成一场筹款活动， 为落后地区的孩子筹集学习必需品？🤓

This student is a very special one; he realized that a simple act of kindness can have a huge impact on people's life. This special 3rd grade boy co-designed his fundraising birthday party with Upbeing team and even inspired his friends to join the project.

The project is called Play4Good

Which is based on the 3P model (Pay, Passion, Purpose)

Play4Good项目基于3P模型（ (付出, 激情, 目标)

First Upbeing facilitator offered a short-term training to the selected students. They learnt and practiced the basic skills of improvisation and during the rehearsals co-created an original play called iPadWonderland

Upbeing 给孩子们进行了一个短期的训练🤠，训练包括即兴表演技能，与此同时，孩子们在排练中共创出了一个原创戏剧：iPad Wonderland (iPad 梦游仙境）

“ The hero of the story is a small boy who had a car accident and when the doctors were doing surgery on him he fell asleep and found himself in the Ipad Wonderland. In this land everything was made of Ipads and special rules have to be followed, such as if you keep doing good deeds you will receive something you wish for. The boy only wish was to get back to his real world. But before that he had to find the Technoldrink which was guarded by the Black Hacker. He had friends such as Robot, Windy who helped him to achieve his goal. When he finally got back he realized it was just a dream and he survived the accident but he was extremely happy to see his friends all around him.he realized how lucky he is to have such an amazing friends and family. 

故事的主角是一个刚遭遇了一场车祸的小男孩， 当医生给他做手术的时候，他梦到自己进入了一个iPad仙境。 在这里，所有的东西都是iPad做成的， 并且有着一系列奇奇怪怪的规则，比如如果你坚持做好事，你就能梦想成真。

而这个小男孩唯一的梦想就是想要回到真实的世界。但是他必须要找到一种特殊的饮品（Technoldrink），而这个饮料被一个黑客守护着。 在小男孩的机器人朋友Windy的帮助下他获得了Technoldrink。而当他最终回去的时候，他意识到那只是一个梦境，而手术也很成功，他活了下来，当再次见到自己亲朋好友的时候，他意识到自己原来拥有者如此美好的生活。”

"Could anything be better than this? Waking up everyday knowing that lots of people are smiling because you chose to impact lives, making the world a better place. "

还有比这更美好的事么？ 看到自己给到他人带去更多积极的影响，让这个世界变得更美好。❤️

At the birthday party many vendors also showed up and all the proceeds from the sales will also go to the NGO which is supported by the student family.

So first there was a casual market upstairs and around 5 pm it was showtime.

在生日派对上， 也有许多人前来义卖，所有的收入将一并捐献给此次的公益计划。

First the trained kids led couple of improv games and after performed the original play.

The show was a big success and all the parents were super proud of their kids. Some of them said they have never ever seen such a meaningful and impactful birthday party.

 Upbeing在中学生创新活动中的引导：

Takeaways:

The facilitation we have done in this project

1. Based on the student personal interest encouraged him to participate in the training and co-create the iriginal play.  The student could try out himself, gain some hands-on experience and enhanced self-confidence.

从孩子兴趣出发，并召集更多小伙伴，会让活动参与的活跃度和体验感提升，同时增强孩子参与的自信心

2. Each activity can develop the student’s associative thinking. The student had an opportunity to explore solutions from a different angle. Got a better understanding of the NGO world and the technology world.

The innovative "curriculum" based on the combination of project-based learning, real life scenarios helped the student to improve collaboration skills, improv skills, story-telling skills, public speaking skills, creativity

帮助学生发展联想力， 从各个不同的角度寻找解决方案。 并更好的理解NGO以及科技。

整个创新式的课程基于项目式学习，以及真实的生活场景，来帮助学生培养提高协作能力，即兴能力，表达能力，公众演讲能力，以及必不可少的创造力

3.Creativity can open windows which you haven't even seen before. It can provide a different prospective to an existing problem. How can a 3rd grade boy create a real social impact.

This case could be even inspiring for big companies CSR managers. How you combine creativity, fun, social innovation and have a positive impact not only on your life but also on others around you, plus on the underprivileged people.

创造力可以帮你打开新的视野，并给当下存在的问题提供不同的角度。让一个10岁的孩子创造一定的社会影响力。

这对于大公司的CSR来说也会是一种启发， 将创造力，趣味性，社会创新相结合，给自己与他人带去积极的社会影响力。

4.We also have a reflection after the workshop. What are the takeaways? 

活动结束后，我们对工作坊也进行了一定反思：

• Keep iterating: do not chase perfection

• Don't think too much just do it, be spontaneous, the best ideas come randomly

• Always have a positive mindset, be open to other people's suggestion.

• Facilitate co-creation and enhance collaboration skills

• 不断迭代，而不是追求完美。

• 行动比想法更重要，积极主动，好的点子会随之而来。

• 积极的心态，对他人的建议保持开放心态

• 引导共创并加强协作能力
