The First Day Of Volunteering ( 15th April 2014)
Today,
Tuesday 15th April 2014 (5:00pm- 7:00pm), was the first of the volunteering in Abu Dhabi
club for special needs. When I entered the club we went straight to the manager
of the club, he was so kind with dealing with us, and we had a short meeting
which he mentioned the history of the club and when did it open, plus he talked
about his jobs before and how many years did he manage this club (3 years). The
manager Faisal was so emotional and effective in his words to those disables,
and every word was telling us that he consider them as his own children from he's
flesh and blood which we moved by him and gave us a motive to love and respect those
kind of people. He also mentioned some other clubs that these children are
training in, and what kind of Olympics they played, the medallions they got and
how can we train them. The manager gave as a tour around the club to know the
right place of every work.
After that he took us to the Armed Forces
Officers Club (one of the club he mentioned). We met some of the trainers and
there were some of the disable boys playing football and other girls were
training on basketball. We stood watching them how they train and how good they
are on it. In the end of the first day of the volunteering and before we go
back home we discussed and decided on
which day we will volunteer, how many hours and all of that will be updated in
the volunteer plan.
