Dear visitors !
Here comes the second post of the volunteers blog !!
We've had a very busy start of the week, spending our entire monday cold calling schools to arrange meetings and dates for our workshop, which is approved by the Higher Ministry of Education and sponsored by the Standard Chartered Bank (yep, we are a BIG DEAL).
After some succesful and less succesful calls, we managed to raise a meeting for this week with a school. We were really proud of this first achievement when we found out at the meeting tonight that this school is the one farthest away from town! One-hour drive apparently! Ouch! Hopefully we'll get a friendly AIESECer to get us there (AIESECers if you are reading this: HINT-HINT).
Tomorrow morning me, our Boss Elaine, Ripple and this other friendly girl from AIESEC are going to three different schools near UPM to arrange meetings and dates to run the workshop. Wish us luck !!
So this is all for today. We'll keep you updated !
Bettina and the HOPE team. xx
