Sehari Bersama Desa Amal Jireh

A group at 11 members from i-Club went for this charity drive on 30 August 2009, which is a day before our country National Day. Though there is only 11 of us, we manage to run all the activities smoothly. All the orphan had great fun with us for this whole day event and when we are leaving, we get hugs and kisses from them. They were all so charming and easy going kids.

The day started off at sharp 9.30am with short briefing and introduction from i-Club members and also our teacher advisor. The follow with warm up with the kids to get them ready for the first activity of the day... Treasure Hunt. At the same time, Colouring Contest were held inside the hall for the nursery. After treasure hunt, all of them were sited in the hall for Story Telling Competition from the Primary School kids. As its a guys VS ladies contest, the kids were cheering for each group. Lunch were provided by Desa Amal Jireh for all of us at 12.30pm where we the 'fortunate groups' were given a chance to taste the food served in orphanage and they actually served us slightly better food (more ingredients) than those orphan. Reason is they scare that we are not use to eating not much ingredients food. Thanks to them that all of us did enjoy our lunch very much.

Title of their Drama ("Superhero Saves The World") had been given to them 2 weeks before the Charity Drive and it is also a guys VS ladies competition. After lunch the two groups compete with each other again for the prizes. They were given chance to do some simple baking and sandwich making too. The Primary School kids did the Non-bake Chocolate Ball, whereas the Secondary School kids did the Sandwich. The best of the day is eventually the kids took those Chocolate Ball and put it under the sun to bake. Their pure action really make the day for all of us. The Chocolate Balls and Sandwiches were served as their tea time and after that, we continue on with our sports carnival.

The day ended with prize giving and also donation from student (wanted to be anonymous) from UKM to them. Its really a tiring but meaningful day for all of us.
