April is Sharity Month!

April is Sharity month!

This month, we will be fulfilling our philanthropic duties as a member of the community!
We have chosen to work on gathering resources for an NGO, Refuge for the Refugees (click to see the Facebook page!) which provides education for Myanmar refugee children in Malaysia.

Here's how YOU can help:

1. We will be collecting donations from parents throughout the first three weeks of April. Parents can contribute money and school materials for the children's use.

2. We will be visiting the school at the end of the month to send them our contributions. We will be bringing along our 5 and 6 year old students who would like to take part with us. Our current plan is to have the students distribute their donations, join in on a lesson, and have lunch with the children. Parents can join us when we visit the school and can also donate lunch for our students and the Burmese children.


Parents may choose to give monetary donations or material donations in the form of school supplies.


HERE'S WHAT THEY NEED:

• stationary for students (pencils, erasers, rulers, colour pencils, etc)
• exercise books
• stationary for teachers (marker pens, pens, ink refills, etc)
• story books
• art & craft materials (craft paper, glue, etc)

What they really DO need is funds. The school operates on a monthly expenditure of RM 1,200.00 ONLY and we hope to collect enough to at least lift this burden off their shoulders for a month.

We truly hope for parents' contribution, help and support in our mission to teach our students to share and give to those who are less fortunate.
