Last year, Integrity AO and the BBGM had been collaborating on doing some CSR projects and establishing them in the 11th of October Orphanage. The first one (and also check these two links here and here) incorporated education as well as some general work and building of a children playground at the orphanage. For the purposes of this project, Integrity AO had invited a team of 12 volunteers that came from the United States to help us in realizing this project. The second one, went under the name of Volunteer Day, where many people as well as businesses came to give us a hand in cleaning the front yard at the orphanage as well as paint the front fence.
As a continuation, this year, starting from 11th of March (Monday) we are starting a similar project where we will do some general maintenance of the front yard - spring cleaning, cleaning up and painting the rest of the fence at the orphanage. Again, we are welcoming a volunteering team from the United States, who are in fact a college American football team that goes by the name of Wheaton Thunder (See their picture below). They will be visiting us as part of their off season time and will help us do this project, to learn something from them and also, the children at the orphanage will have a great opportunity to practice their English, talking to someone who is a native speaker.
Anyone who would like to join us, or help us in any way - we are delighted to welcome. Please contact Ivan or Brian (emails and phones in the picture above text) to let us know when are you coming or how do you want to assist us. Please note that we suggest that you donate a participation fee which will help us provide paint brushes, paint and other materials and tools needed for the workings during the project.
Stay tuned for more information, pictures and videos of the project.
