Teaching for a Cause | Half day workshop

Teaching for a Cause | Half day workshop

"Abbu, Abbu," I heard a cry from another room. Me and my wife were tidying up the kitchen but before we could respond, my 5-year old came running to the kitchen with tears streaming down his face.

"Aaapi ruined all my lego buildings! I spent so much time building them".

(*Aapi - Elder Sister)

We tried to comfort him, but he was really upset.

So I dried my hands and went over to rebuild his lego buildings for him. It was so heartwarming to see him light up and smile again after I finished.

How I wish I could rebuild all the buildings torn apart by the recent earthquake in Turkey and Syria. How I wish I could bring the smile back for the survivors.

But we are all Mortal beings and we know - "To God we belong and to Him we return."

Your Turn to Play

Here's my little attempt to help raise funds by doing something with my skills. Would love to get your support.

  1. Make a donation of $20 or more for the victims of earthquake. Link to charities you could support at the end.
  2. Register for the workshop by filling this form
  3. Share it with more people and encourage them to donate as well
