Örs (8 years old, Pilisvörösvár)

Örs’s wish was a remote-controlled toy car. When I asked him about his request, he said that previously he’d had a remote-controlled car, but unfortunately it had been already broken.

Örs did not know what a cool day Monday would be... His mother just told him that the students and teachers of the British International School's are waiting for him...

We arrived at the school in the morning, where the 5th grade students were gathering to the General Assembly. It was also a surprise for them that Örs would be there.
The boy is waiting for a transplantation, he can be called in to the hospital at any moment, so we kept our fingers crossed that he could receive the gift personally from the donating students.
Within the frame of the celebration the students were talking about their benefit activities, and also about their work in order to make our two magic lamp children happy.
They were incredibly inventive: organised charity cookies sales, gave donations from their pocket money, they organised a sponsored walkand even asked their teachers to change positions for a day, that means they would be teachers, and teachers would be students.

Their efforts were crowned with success, and Örs’s wish came true as the result of all these activities.

The boy was very happy and said that it was exactly the type that he had wished. We asked the students who would like to have such a wonder car, and almost everyone raised his/her hand...

Dear Örs, we hope that the car will also help you in the speedy recovery and remember the students' message and their song: you are important to them!

Many thanks for the support of the teachers, the fifth-grade students and their parents of the British International School of Budapest to make Örs’s wish come true.
