REPORT by Sanja Zivancevic
Dear Mr. President
I come on behalf of fund-raising organisation for disadvantaged children.
The main purpose of this report is to show people that here are a lot of serious fund-raising organisations even if they are at the beginning. We started this organisation last year, when we raise very big sum of money for disadvantaged children. We were very proud because we had opportunity to help more than expected. This year we organised fund-raising day which went very well and we also raised a lot of money, more than last year.
This year was decided to give all money for schooling for those children. Assistance was provided by mayor, and three television. Volunteers included about 50 people, mostly students from the philological university who were really great and good in what hey were doing. Thanks to them and their bravely decisions, the largest part of the sum raised came from house-to-house collection (40%). We also had street collection where we raised another 30% of sum, and the rest of money we collected on charity concert and performance.
In the light of this year’s experience we decided to keep up next year with house-to-house collection, maybe to make some street party with DJ instead of performance. It is recommended that we have to look more serious, maybe to have some special badges which will demonstrate that we are genuine, because people thought that we are not.
I am hoping that you are satisfied.

Newscast review by Sanja Z.
I recently saw a CNN newscast about the strangest event in Arizona which happened 10 years ago, and no one can really explain to us what it was. Some strange lights appeared in the night sky above Phoenix in Arizona.
Former Arizona Governor Five Symington witnessesed the event as did a lot of other citizens of Phoenix. They told pretty the same story about that event. Five Symington introduced a place of the event to the CNN journalist which wanted to made newscast about it. Five was pretty afraid to make panic 10 years ago, because he also wasn’t so sure what was happened that night in 1997.
In regard to Five, residents were certain about everything what they saw. In this video we can notice that they are explaining and describing everything like it is happening in that moment. They told they saw something strange, large, incredibly, size of a football field.
Five Symington couldn’t tell in public what he had seen that night, and now he wanted to explain what it was. But even if he tried to explain us, we still didn’t get the real answer, or it is better to say matching answer. It’s not important if you believe in Fives and people words, I am sure you should watch this video because it is fun and interesting, even if there is a lot of questions without answer.
