Activity: Fundraising For A Charity
After reading the TKN story about Caine’s Arcade, one grade six class decided to make their own cardboard arcade games.

One girl suggested they also hold an arcade day at school to raise money.

In groups of four, the children made games using recycled materials.

One afternoon they set up their games in the cafeteria, charging 25 cents per game (first four games free).

In just two hours, they raised $300 for the Prader-Willi Research Foundation.
