Greetings Volunteer,
Good news! More students reached now more than ever! The UP Broadcasters Guild organization conducted their second tutoring session for around 20 He Cares foundation students yesterday, Nov. 8, 2024. Our efforts are being multiplied thanks to their help!
Come this Saturday?
We will need 15 more volunteers.
You don't have to be a whiz at Math and English, we just need you to listen to the children and to help them read books (provided) and maybe understand their lessons (if you need assistance, other tutors may be asked). Don't be apprehensive about forgetting the basics from gradeschool, we've forgotten too. It's a team and we help each other remember. What's most important is that these children make a friend who encourages them to go on.
Just an hour to encourage them that learning can be enjoyable (or that it is possible to understand) is more than enough. Seeing people who care is enough.
Please join us on:
Nov. 15, 2014 (Saturday)
1 to 3 pm
1st or 3rd floor, Brgy. Bungad
*near Baler St. and West Ave. QC
*PLEASE ask for directions before Saturday because sometimes, we are already doing the orientation and some volunteers are lost because we are already busy and were not able to answer the calls.
THINGS TO BRING:
- bring water, you might get thirsty!
- snacks to share with kids and volunteers (optional)
- ballpen and scratch paper
- just some enthusiasm!!!
- OPTIONAL: If you have wifi that would help a lot for questions we can't
answer but someone else's can be borrowed in case you don't have :)
This Saturday is coming and we pray that:
1. We will have a good attendance of both volunteers and children.
2. That that children will be able to enjoy the session and be better at school.

1. We will have a good attendance of both volunteers and children.
2. That that children will be able to learn and excel in school.
3. That the tutors will enjoy their session with the children and take home wonderful memories.
We are calling for more volunteers! Everyone is invited. You don't have to be a tutor. You just need to have a heart of compassion for these young ones. What will we teach? Primarily English and Math. If you are able to teach other subjects that is great but we don't require professional tutors. What we need are people who are encouraging and positive for the children to emulate.
How? Come and the children will ask you about their homework or you can tell them a story or do some simple arithmetic with them.
Please consider coming. When we lack tutors, we cannot give the attention they badly need since we have to tutor 2 or 3 or 4 students at a time. We aim to have one child to one tutor. If you have more questions please feel free to contact us. Please confirm if you are coming so we can assign you a child to Shannon at shannon_capati@yahoo.com
Lastly do tell us if you are coming!!! Sometimes there are last minute changes with the venue so we need your confirmation.
Blessings!
Blessings!
Christina Alejandro
Volunteer Coordinator
P.S. If you cannot come this Saturday, please come next time!
*Please feel free to pass this invitation to anyone who may be interested to join us!
