Last Friday we were interviewed by VK and this weekend you could read the article in the newspaper. We got a whole page to ourselves, it must still mean something.
To all who have seen the article in the newspaper and went in to our website. I hope you were inspired and come to our gala.
Sincerely, Mikaela Engman (PR manager of "Heal The World")

UF firm Heal the world are planning a charity event on a large scale at Idun May 28. From left Mikaela Engman, Victoria Garcia Andersson, Viktor Björk and idil Warsame at Umeå International High School.

Gala for orphans
At the end of May, held a big charity event at Idun, Umeå. Behind the gala are four high school lives. - The money goes to an orphanage in Ghana, says they.

The orphanage belongs to the organization Hardt Haven and is located in K'pando in Africa Ghana. Umeå International gymnasium flies to Ghana every year and visit including the orphanage.
- What we want is help with money for medicine and food. The orphanage also want to start a farm and expand so that they can accommodate 100 children and take their own buildings. We want to help them with money and will go straight there, "says the young people.


Projects and enterprises
Idil Warsame, Victoria Garcia Andersson, Viktor Björk and Mikaela Engman read third year on the school's social science programs.

They organize gala Heal the world both as a project and UF company.

Even though they only worked on this for a short time, they have already made considerable progress in planning. And wherever they are, they face a positive response.
Free local
- Folketshus allows us to be in Idun-theater for free, which actually costs 33 000 SEK for rent and Cultural Society Humlan (Bumblebee) stand as co-organizer and organizes evening the artists, "said Victoria Garcia Andersson.
- In addition, Bianco has promised to stand with shoes, Wayne's catering and Ruth.m.fl with costumes. Högtidskläder (Formal Wear) lend clothes for the gala konferencierer and Body Shop will hand out gift bags, says Mikaela Engman.

- Some other clothing chains will perhaps sponsor of clothing directly to the orphanage and we will seek sponsorship from, among other things, Umeå municipality to pay the artists. But it feels like we get help wherever we go, focused at youth and culture, they say.
Can do something
The message is that anyone can make a difference.

Pupils have a motto: "I'm only one, but still I am one. I can not do everything, but still I can do something."

Charity Gala place on 28 May 2010 in two parts. On the day with locally known artists, theater and dance, and more focus on the reason for the gala. In the evening performances with two major artists.

In cooperation with young people and artists within the esthetical and artistic world of culture, our will is to reach out with the message that everyone is capable to help humans in need world wide.

The Gala

To read about the reasons for the gala, go into the menu and click on HardtHaven



Our ambitions with "Heal The World" is to hold two performances. These will continue over the course of two hours with a 15-30 minute break. This is because we in the latter performance will keep coffee sales of Wayne's Coffee in the break and, therefore, need to keep it longer. During the show, we will entertain with dance and music performances and standup comedy, and of course lectures and speeches on our end.

Given our high ambitions and desire to make a big difference for charity purpose, we are not looking for small, relatively unknown artists. Important is also to be able to add high levels of light and sound technology. In order to best implement the project, we are in great need of financial sponsorship.
During the gala evening performance, we will ask for two longer performances of Sweden's famous, national and international artists.


Which artists, dance groups, stand-up comedians, etc. that will be displayed during the gala performances are not yet set in stone. Further information will be displayed on the page, this link, in the near future.

HardtHaven

Our aim is to help the orphanage HardtHaven in K'pando, Ghana. Children who are cared for there, have all lost their parents to HIV / AIDS and some of the children are HIV positive.
The children receive different support depending on his / her needs. They receive funding for schooling, food, and those who may need medical attention. The severely ill, may even rehabilitation of the local hospital, Margaret Marquart Hospital.
The activity also work to provide local communities and schools HIV / AIDS and health education. HardtHaven has recently begun to provide palliative care for HIV positive women, depending on their needs for food, personal care, etc. Volunteers spend time with these women, along with some of the older children in the orphanage volunteered to help.
HardtHaven provides an opportunity for volunteers from around the world to make a difference in Ghana.
The reason we chose Hardt Haven, is due to the contact our school has with the orphanage. Every year some of the UIG's (Umeå international high school) students the chance to, in the course of two weeks, visit Ghana. One of the objectives was to include visits to the orphanage.
Therefore, we know that by choosing Harderhaven ports money in safe custody and that will be used for a good cause, without ending up astray!
