Jan - May 2013 MOVE Program in Ajman

January 2013 – May 2013
Two MOVE programs are being run at the Manar Al Eman Charity School for boys and girls in Ajman. The MOVE is a one year program designed to empower underprivileged teens with the skills they need to succeed in their future careers as well as make a difference in their own communities.
 
Part of the program is a public presentation competition where the winning students received vouchers as prizes. Many of them were highly motive to participate and did great in their presentations. This program will resume again after school holidays in September.

I must start by saying that I was very hesitant to participate and be a volunteer as I have never been involved in something like this. But doing so has totally changed my thinking. It opened my eyes to see that it was fun being surrounded by children who are so enthusiastic in wanting to learn so much more of not just a language but also interacting with us, all from totally different cultures and background. Yes, I am so glad that I did volunteer, even if I have not made a great impact on their lives, they definitely left me walking out that night with a smile on my face and sweet memories that I will carry with me for a long time. Thank you Action Care for giving me this opportunity.
