Ms. Cherry opened her home, despite poor conditions, as a
temporary school for neglected children in the area. There are no
chalkboards or desks, but only dirt grounds where children sat around to learn. We, Ecosave club members, consistently got
together for fundraising to help improve the learning environment for Ms.Cherry
and her school. Cherry school
which was originally a crowded space covered in dirt floor transformed
into a well-organized cement floor classroom with desks and chairs.
Furthermore, Cherry school was able to build an additional
floor to her home to provide separate classrooms. The first floor will be
used for school and the second floor for Ms. Cherry's family living space.
Initially,
construction started with about half of the necessary funds in place,
but by the completion of the rebuild, more donations from other charitable
organizations allowed us to finish the project. And upon its completion,
Cherry school was able to obtain its official name 'Cherryl Learning
Center'.
It was very satisfying to see such great improvement in Cherry School as children will be able to develop their dreams in a better learning environment.
