In July 2015, that was the first time we met DHL GoTeach Volunteers who introduced to us the Blossom Literacy Program (BLP) Syllabus to our children in MY Reading Program that focused on building the foundation of the children through phonics teaching to developing their skills in Reading, Listening, Speaking and Writing.
Since then, the volunteers has been coming constantly to mentor the children, eventually 30 children had completed the 1st series of the BLP. Hence DHL GoTeach Volunteers were invited to the graduation ceremony to specifically encourage these 30 children by presenting them certificates and also gifts.
Through the consistent mentoring by DHL GoTeach volunteers, these children managed to overcome their challenges in reading, and instill self-confidence in them.
DHL GoTeach volunteers' work in MY Reading Program had won them a CSR Award and the volunteers utilized the fundings to purchase folding for these children in the MY Reading Program.
GoTeach volunteers from DHL IT services employees have fulfilled a great Spirit of Volunteerism and their objectives by purchasing the Reading materials and facilitating the teaching materials - engaging with the children and mentoring them to bring out the best potential in these children from the urban poor community. It is sustainable and impactful. As they are not merely giving fish to the children but at the same time teaching the children to fish for themselves.
