Ecosave Outreach News (from Open Hands Blog)

감동의 6월! 나눔이 있는 아웃리치! 
Month of Impression! Outreach with sharing!

지속적인 만남을 이어가는 ‘에코세이브’ 학생들과 체리학교 아이들~!

래딕스에 이어서 23~25일에는 국제학교 환경연합 동아리인 ‘에코세이브’의 필리핀 아웃리치가 진행되었습니다. 묘지마을로 유명한 베이타운 지역에서 미니운동회와 손세정제를 이용한 위생교육을 진행하며 아이들과 재미나고 감동스런 시간을 만들어갔습니다.
아이들과 함께 뛰놀며 얻은 감동은 이나라완에 위치한 체리 선생님의 가정학교로 이어졌습니다. 체리학교에 지속적인 지원을 하고 있는 에코세이브!

이전 까지는 학교의 모습을 갖출 수 있도록 도왔다면 이번 활동에서는 재미있고, 유익함을 더한 교육과 미니게임을 통해 실제적인 교육환경을 마련하기 위한 활동에 중점을 두었습니다. 이곳에 컴퓨터 4대와 도서를 기증하고 직접 컴퓨터를 활용한 교육과 위생교육, 미술수업을 실시하며 아이들에게 더 좋은 교육 환경을 제공하도록 도왔습니다.

특별히 이번에는 체리 가정학교가 Cherryl Learning Center라는 이름으로 공식 학교이름이 탄생하였습니다. 이를 기념하기 위해 학생들은 직접 학교 간판도 설치하며 의미 있는 시간을 보내고 돌아왔습니다.또한 워터킷을 사용하는 가정을 직접 방문하여 깨끗한 물을 제대로 공급받고 있는지 점검하며 이곳에 더 좋은 환경에서 아이들이 꿈을 키워나갈 수 있도록 지원했습니다.

Ongoing relationship building between Ecosave students and Cherry school kids~!

Following Reddix, the Philippines Outreach of "EcoSave", an international school environment circle, was held on 23-25th of June. In the Baytown area, famous for its cemetery, we organized mini-sporting event and hygiene training session using hand cleanser to create fun and inspiring time with children.
Fulfilling experience of playing with the children led us to Cherry's home school in Inawan. Eco Save continues to support Cherry's school!

Previously, Eco Save helped to establish the basic structure of the school. But now the focus was on activities to create a real educational environment through mini-games and enjoyable educational session. We have donated four computers and various books for general education and special learning session on hygiene and art classes using computers, and to provide a better educational environment for children.


This year, we officially named the Cherry's school 'Cherryl Learning Center'. In commemorating this event, students were able to come back with a meaningful experience. We also visited families using water purification kits to check if they are receiving clean water while helping children to develop their dreams in a better environment.

6월의 무더위에 맞서 지속적인 나눔을 펼쳐준 래딕스 임직원분들과 에코세이브 동아리 학생들 모든 분들께 진심으로 감사의 말씀을 전합니다~!
We would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to all of the Reddix employees and the Ecosave Club members who have provided continuous support despite the scorching heat of June.

Ecosave Outreach 2019/06/23~25

A few weeks ago, the Ecosave team got a chance to visit Cherry School and Baytown in the Philippines. It was a very short visit; we went to Baytown on the first day and Cherry School on the second. Our main goal was to have fun with the kids with games and also educate them about the importance of hygiene. Because we couldn't communicate with the kids directly, the locals there who could speak English helped us translate. It was an amazing experience. The weather was extremely hot and humid, but the kids there were still very cooperative and welcoming. For Cherry School, we brought our own books from home and also helped Cherry install computers and the internet. The kids really loved it. Seeing the kids having fun and enjoying themselves was very rewarding for all of us.
