i think i was going to cry when they asked me "ate pat, last day nio nah?" (is this already your last day with us?) with a sad face on their face, they hugged and kissed me. i was touched with their gestures. i'll miss the moments wherein after our session, they'll join me to walk while im holding their hands to go to the terminal on my way home. i told them that im going to try to go back if i have the extra time. my last words with them was "try to be a good kid!". it was a memorable experience for me dealing with these kids. actually i miss them already.
Im a college student from De La Salle - College of St. Benilde. in order for us to finish our course, we have to take up NSTP subject wherein we have to do community work. i had the chance to interact with street children based in Escolta street Sta. Cruz Manila through the cooperation of Child Hope Asia Philippines.
Poverty is one of the main problems of the Philippines, Having a movement like this would hopefully alleviate or lessen the children on the streets. Lets go hand in hand to make this movement pursue its mission. More power to Childhope Asia Philppines.
