If you are new to Suwon and looking for voulunteering, please email me!

As you can see, I have uploaded the post volunteering reports after weekly activities. However, what you see is only the tip of the iceberg. About 10 volunteers have become really close friends, work at the same place, share different hobbies, fun and dedicate themselves to the cause and this is not seen online.

Don't just leave should you look for some volunteering action in the city of Suwon. Get involved. Reach out.

Thank you.

Just as the previous week, only a number of us showed up. I thank thee, Rachael and Stephanie. We managed to purchase 16 bags of each and handed them over. However, something was quite different. While we were strolling over the benched near the shelter, some one yelled "Yo!" I doubted my ear, thinking that someone was calling us out "여기~요" and I missed the first two syllables. We all ceased, turned around and looked at the person. It was one of homeless and yes he did yell "Yo" Much to our surprise, we gave one back to him, in return we heard "Thank you"

 After the occurrence, the three musketeers had a good laugh. On top of him, we also had a guy sitting in front the steps of the station that repeated "Thank you". When we embarked upon the small resting area on the left side of the station we were met by several and failed to fulfill their palate due to the lack of the food. And yet, this one gentleman given a bag from us was generous enough to yield his to the one and only lady in the group. You would all recognize her face, by the way. As one of us proclaimed, chivalry is not quite dead yet.

Come out this weekend and let's share such wonderful experience with us, ya'll.

Help Your Suwon Week 31

Current Deposit : 212,950 won
Previous Deposit : 224,410 won
Newly Deposited : -11,460 won (20,000 won - 31,460 won)
I paid the extra 11,460 won on top of the quota of 10,000 won
and thus transferred it to my other account.



 Last week, only 2 people showed up. But we managed to distribute 16 bags. It was not enough to cover the rest of the group. But hopefully this week, I see more people. I personally thank Grace for showing up at the last minute :)

Speaking of change in time, I talked to the manager and he said that until the end of August, only on Sundays and holidays, the new operation hours will take effect. At time point, I think that it is unnecessary for us to change our hours from 6:00pm to 8pm. As we improvised last week, there are places in the vicinity where we can repeat what we have been doing so far. At any rate, thank you all for coming and see you this weekend.
