Shangilia


I have been going to Shangilia for the past few weeks and I have really enjoyed this different experience. On our second trip, we had to bring Easter eggs and some toys and clothes as a small gift to the children. I gave them some easter eggs and a much need new soccer ball, which they played with the entire time we were there. I also played some football with them and a few other people from ISK, although I am not good at all, it was fun. I also helped teach some of the kids math and assisted the teacher in invigilating an exam that the older children were taking I had a lot of fun and I think it is a great program and ISK really helps to brighten the atmosphere around Shangilia just by being there. I think that the kids look forward to our visits as much as I do. It is lovely to see the teachers in such a poverty-ridden place always keep a smile on their faces and help the kids no matter what.
