This article is re-created with any changes by me for beloved #KelasKlpDua.
Originally from #KelasKlpDua's blog. For more information about our activities, programs, how to donate, how to be a volunteer, kindly open the link bellow.
Our
learning activities in #KelasKlpDua succesfully have been starting since
January 27th 2013 until now. Principally, we only give them practical
knowledges that can be a basic insights for them to live. We teach them some
subjects that they have earned from school like Mathematic, English, Bahasa
Indonesia and another general subjects. Not only giving them education with an
Academic system but in every three weeks we create some kind of activities
outside the class, we call it ‘ekskul’. We thought with this outdoor activity
will avoid the kids from boredom of learning things inside the class.
We
obviously realize that our struggling phase when we build this class not yet
enough (not even close, maybe) to
give a guarantee that they can reach a brighter future. And by that thought, we
want to give a change to ‘YULI’, one of our best kids in class. Yuli have a
strong willingness to get back to the school. You can see her desire by her
efforts to learn wholeheartedly in every single learning process in our class,
#KelasKlpDua.
Yuli
is 7th daughter of 12 Mrs. Nung and Mr. Endang Sofian’s Children. Mrs Nung is a
traditional massager with an unstable income. In the other side, Mrs Nung’s
husband and also Yuli’s father has passed away couple months ago. Based on
Yuli’s background and of course her spirit to learn, we choose her as our first
kid in this KKS (Kirim Kami ke Sekolah/Send Us Back to School) program.
Yuli’s
daily activity is helping her mother to keep her little sister and brother in
home while her mother is looking for life’s coin. Even it’s been a long time since she had
gap in her education, Yuli still diligently studies at home with some books
from people’s donation,
When
we opened our #KelasKlpDua’s mini library, her desire to keep up in learning
things have shown clearly. She really loves books about world’s facts, and at
the end she’s always ask us a permission to borrow the book. “Okay, but
don’t forget to bring it back in our next class so your friends
can borrow the book too” kak Dhila said when wrote kids that will borrow the
book’s name. “Yahh, only a week. Next week i will ask Nopi to borrow it, and
then the next week it’s Epul’s turn to borrow it for me so i can finish the
book. Hehe” She said. Nopi and Epul are Yuli’s brother and sister. They are
also in #KelasKlpDua.
One
more thing that makes us really in love with this kid is the way she loves her
mother and listens to her mother. Yuli has a wide mindset Inversely
proportional to people in her neighborhood. This is the reason why Yuli is not
really liked by people in her neighborhood and sometimes they get angry with
Yuli. Like
other normal mother, if Mrs. Nung knows her child is being condemned, she will
be sad. Yuli had thought about it when she was shunned by others. She cried and
got angry. But while she was at home she got back with smile.
Yuli’s
desire to get into boarding school has been expressed to her mother couple
weeks ago. And we got a happy news from Mr Munawar the owner of ‘Sekolah
Rakyat’ in Ds. Cangkil Kec. Caringin Bogor, this school based with islamic
program and enterpreanurship program. “Pondok Pesantren Tahfidzul Qur’an
Minhajul Karomah” gives our kids in #KelasKlpDua an opportunity to get a formal
education with an islamic based without any tuition fee.
Although
it’s free, Yuli’s living expense while she’s in the pesantren every month is the reason why
Mrs Nung was afraid to take this opportunity. Mr Munarwan estimates the living
expense of student of her own school every month is Rp.400.000,- including food,
drink, bath and washing equipment, books, girl sanitation things, and another
unexpected things. We
are as the administrator of #KelasKlpDua think that we can not afford Yuli’s
living expense with our limited cash. Our initial will to
collect the money is to concern all of the kids in #KelasKlpDua like to give
them an "allowance” to replace
their lost because their “work time”
took by us.
Based
on a Funding needs that we’ve just explained, we hope that you would donate
your money to send Yuli back to School. This KKS program is a place for foster
parent or collect the money from several foster parents so we hope the
donation given can occur every month as
long Yuli in school. The money that you donate based on voluntary. As long you
can keep a commitment to help Yuli, we will appreciate it no matter how much it
is. We will manage the fund every month to help Yuli’s need while in school.
