*from the 27th Nov 2011 activity)
For the second week activity, we had a newcomer, Rachel. It is always good to see new people join the cause. Nevertheless, the performance was rather sluggish because there weren't many homeless at the station. Grant it, there were many passengers or people filtering in and out of the station.. which is why the homeless were somewhere else in order to avoid them. Out of 60 bags we prepared, only about the half was given out. In a way, it was warm so the homeless did not need to stay inside, but they could be outside, doing something. Last week was colder, ergo more homeless at the station.
Up in Seoul, the activity consisted of nothing but giving out food. But, here in Suwon, I think we can spice things up by doing something creative. It could be clothes drive, English teaching
.. or something else. I need a bit more of resources to pull it off. Might as well talk to the head of the NGO soon.
