Doing it for the kids
Looking for a chance to share your creative skills and bring a smile to the faces of some disadvantaged kids? The Beijing charity organization Compassion for Migrant Children (CMC), needs volunteers to run one-hour workshops for after-school program.
The program starts on September 10 and runs from 5:30-6:45pm, each school day. It is held at the Dawangjing Community Center, north of Lido. Coordinator Bridget Goddard, 28, said volunteers run their workshops on a variety of themes, such as arts and crafts, music, sport, drama, dance or games. "Any help would be appreciated", Goddard said.
The charity's after-school program has an educational as well as mentoring(辅导) focus. The children are helped with their homework, learn valuable life skills, and take part in the various workshops that are presented by volunteers.
Goddard, of Midlands in the United Kingdom, combines a full-time teaching job at Yew Chung International School with her volunteer work for CMC.
She said many migrant children had trouble adapting to urban life, after moving from the countryside with their parents, who came to Beijing to work. Goddard said behavioral and emotional problems were common, but "dramatic changes" were possible simply by treating the children with compassion. Since she started with CMC, Goddard said she had seen her young charges "come on in leaps and bounds".
