Introduction: The aim of this report is to describe the benefits of either donating the money to a charity or establishing scholarships and to suggest which project we should to choose. I interviewed students from each class to get their opinions.

Charities: Many students think it is a good idea to give money to charities, though several people mentioned that they were not sure which charity were the best ones. A few students told me that they thought some charities were not very reliable. Several students suggested me charities of various kinds.

Scholarships: Although the school already has some scholarships, many students (55 per cent) told me it would be a good idea to offer more. There are many students who would benefit if they could be given some help with their fees.

Conclusion: Both projects obviously have benefits. Although giving the money to charity was a more popular choice it is important to remember that we will have to choose the charity very carefully. Perhaps it would be possible to choose one that provides scholarships for students.
