Public Service: "Lingap ng Estudyante"

             My title on this article was also the name of the outreach program that we held on February 2013. Actually it was my first time to join a program that we, MCT-12, are also the organizers. It was a heart-warming event.

          We went to the “Reception and Study Center for Children” wherein there are many cute and happy children. But as we roam around there place, we felt pity for them. Because it seems like they were jailed in their houses. After roaming the place, we approached the administrator to tell that we are now going to do our program. Then we talked to the house parents that are taking good care of the children. They let the children out of their houses afterwards. But do you know what they did? They run all over the place! They play like as if it's there last chance to do it. At first we were wondering why. In the first place, it was their home. But why are they so excited like that?

            We had a hard time in putting all the children on the place wherein we conduct our program. After few minutes they were convinced to come with us. They sang and danced on the program. They also joined the contest that was prepared for them. Although some were not interested because they wanted to spend their free time on the playground, situations changed when many of our classmates played and talked to them. My role here is to provide a documentary report for this program. That's why I interviewed one of the house parent. She explained that the reason why those children were so excited to go outside because its their only free time to enjoy the ambiance of the outside world.

            They ate on the break time we gave. MCT-12 prepared foods for them. Before the program ends, Bro. Richard offered a scholarship that was given by our school. Then after we fixed our things and materials used on that program, we all went home happily and inspired.
