Summer is coming soon....We all want to relax from school, have some fun, perhaps earn some extra income and learn new skills. After all, summer vacation would truly be a waste of time if we don't make the most of it, right?
Well, we are offering you a chance to spend part of your summer in the most educational, meaningful and fun-filled way: be a
volunteer! This year, Wahn Tihng Study Center is organizing YouthCom 2009. YouthCom stands for Youth for the Community, an annual volunteer service project aimed at forming young women leaders by means of service work to needy communities. This year, we will be working with a Philippines-based foundation called Project: Brave Kids
(www.projectbravekids.org), a group helping poor families with cancer-stricken children. We will be helping out in the following way:
- teach kids English and Maths, Arts and Crafts and Music
- teaching mothers livelihood projects that will help add to their income
- teach short courses on personal development for children and parents
- build a "learn and play corner" containing books and eductional toys in the
hospital
There's a lot of work to be done, so if you have what it takes to be a volunteer,
