Saturday November 27th 2010, the children from Senen Learning Activity (KBM) got their turn for receiving Nutrition for My Friend (NUS) Program from Sahabat Anak. Needed an extra effort that noon since an hour before hard rain hit Jakarta city. The volunteer tutors were worried and whispered, praying for the rain to stop.
On 4 PM, the rain was petered, but still in droplets. When we arrived at the KBM Location, the field was flooding. The children that had already gathered there said, “Kak, wait a moment okay. We want to ngojek first!” Ngojek means they offer umbrella for people on the street and got pay from it.
Olala, the rain brings fortune for those marginal kids. Waited for the rain totally stop and also for some children who went to ngojek, we were singing and playing with the toddlers age pre-school and elementary 1st grade. Right one hour after, the rain finally stopped and other children came back to join us.
At first, we recalled the children about their commitments on Sahabat Anak Jamboree last July. Surprisingly, they still remember and implement it in their life, like consuming vegetables.
The first period of NUS Program, we delivered boiled egg, green bean porridge, and meat bread. They ate the porridge and the eggs. “Why you haven’t eaten the bread?” we asked them curiously. “We save it for tonight, after Learning Session.” They answered honestly. Well, kids… J
Thank you Sahabat Anak for willing to deliver the Nutrition Program for our children at KBM Senen.
