Is this correct, 'love sale'?
Students bring some things of themselves. For example, their dolls and books. And they have a sale in the school to raise money for poor kids. How to call this event? Is this correct, we have a 'love sale'?

Thank you!

Answer

This is called a fundraiser because they're raising money for children in need and they're using donations from children

Answer

I suggest "Charity fundraiser" or "Charity sale."

You definitely want the word "charity," not "love." I am guessing that you are thinking of some Chinese word that can be translated either as "love" or "charity," and that "love" is the wrong translations here.

"Love" has a range of meanings in English. "Love sale" suggests that someone is selling love, which is an unpleasant idea. "Charity" has the basic meaning of kindness or caring, and is often used to mean collecting money for a worthy cause. Organizations that do this--collect money for the poor, or to help victims of natural disasters, etc.--are "charities."

Answer

I think 'charity bazaar' is better than 'a love sale'. :)
