20 August 2010



Yesterday I went to the YMCA boys home (for streetchildren) and vocational training center... Augustinho Fernandes, a rotarian from my club were so nice to show us the place. I had been talking about it with Janina and Trevor, two other inbounds, and they were interested and came along!



These children (all boys in the age of 4-18 yrs) were so excited, at the first place, a boy danced for us, and we got a big group photo with all 25 boys. In the vocational training center, which houses 65 boys, the smallest ones started putting oil in their hair and coming it to look nice for our photos...




It was really great seeing what work the YMCA does for these children, and I think that all three of us were really keen on coming back to do some voluntary work...
