No child gets left behind

I recently joined a group of NGO in doing good deeds to the community. This NGO group have gotten together made a body to help the less fortunate children.

One of their objectives is to give the same quality of education to these children that other children have. They run their services on all over klang valley, most of it is in orphanages. 

One of these places is this:

This place is located near by my place. I can't believe it. I've been living in this area for 7 years, and yet had no clue, that this place existed. 

This place caters to children who are orphans, poor and their mothers are single. And they're all girls. There's about 23 of them, ages 3 to 12 years old.

Since I love children and I love teaching them, I have decided to extend my services to them. 

So the first night I went, was just all about getting to know each other. The volunteers that came, were all from the male gender, and yes I was the rose among the thorn. All together there were 5 volunteers including me. The guys all split up and tutored the older groups, whilst I was in charge to a group of excited preschool girls. 

The activity I prepared for them was playing playdough. Boy were they excited to see them play with them. It kept them occupied for 2 and a half hours. 

I was so happy on the first day, being with them, that I made a commitment to come every Friday night. 

The second time I came, I was so happy to see a large group of female gender volunteers turning up. I was relieved that I was not the rose among the thorn again. This time a bigger group of volunteers came, and also the founders of the NGOs came. 

Some of these face looks familiar and  I think I've seen them on T.V. 

We introduced ourselves and got to know each other. They were a friendly bunch, and was also serious on educating these children. They also informed us that giving love to these children is first priority, and as well as giving them a sense of belonging. And we must create a bond with the children before teaching them the real stuff. Which I totally agree. 

So now there's a new reason to look forward to on Fridays! ^^
