We have
organized four trips to Mar Township Elementary School for the
Mentoring Program. This elementary school has over 300 students
all from rural areas either farmers or nomads. We organize this
activity every two months. Averagely 25 volunteers have
participated in each time. It is about one hour drive from
Lhasa City. Each trip we have divided into 9 different groups
including teaching English (two classes), painting, singing,
paper art, PingPang, Basketball, Soccer, and Baseball teams. We
are providing all of the material and other things needed for
the trip, such as notebooks and pens for drawings, etc. We hope
through our activity we can provide some meaningful and
different experiences for these children from their routine of
school life. At the same time, it also provides a chance for the
volunteers to feel the life of rural area.
