MATUMAINI (Service)

I went to MATUMAINI for volunteer. MATUMAINI calls Save Children Center. They have about 20 orphans and also they are helping single mothers by giving them jobs that is making felt animals. Those felt animals are sold at giraffe center, some hotels and ISK PTO shop.

I stayed there for three days. I helped to make children's food, clean the floor, drawing water and making felt animals. When I have nothing to do, I played with children and thought Japanese folding paper. They were very meek and gentle children. In MATUMAINI, electricity was not stable, and when they take a bath, they have to draw water form the river and boil it themselves. I was surprised that they are independent. When they've reached age of 15, they have to go to high school and supported from MATUMAMINI for money, or go to technical school and get the job. So, I helped older children 's math and science homework as well. I am visiting that place once in a month.
