![Olympia College Organizes Charity Visit to Good Shepherd Home<br />Every year, Olympia College clubs will organize charity events. This year, the Hosteurs Club had organized a charity visit to the Good Shepherd Home. Young Achievers Society (YAS) Club had also joined together with the Hosteurs Club to participate in this visit.<br />Good Shepherd Family Home is a home for orphans. The home has approximately 30 kids, looked after by a couple. Many of these children were emotionally and physically abused. The number of children and teens in foster care are actually aging out each year. Good Shepherd Home is one of the orphanages which provides these children an education, shelter, meals and guidance to give them a new chance in life <br />About 20 members of the Hosteurs Club and 8 members from the YAS Club participated in the visit to the Good Shepherd Home. The students collected approximately RM300 and purchased foods like rice, cooking oil, flour, sugar, cooking sauces, canned sardines, biscuits and instant noodles for the children. <br />According to Ms Cindy Evans, Principal of Olympia College, Ipoh “At Olympia College, we instill in our students to be caring and show affection towards the less fortunate. This visit had opened the students eyes and make them realize how fortunate they are and also taught them to show concern toward the underprivileged ones.”<br />The students of Olympia College helped to clean and rearrange the book racks and stored all the foods they had brought. Other students were chatting with the children and helped the children with their homework. A few went to the kitchen to help prepare the lunch. Some of the students also helped to spring clean the home by wiping the windows.<br />The visit ended at about noon, when the kids prepared to have their lunch. It was a meaningful visit for the students and some commented that the visit made them realize how lucky they were and they should appreciate what they have more.<br />Olympia College incorporates its belief statement in everything the college does and these have produced amazing results with its faculty and students.
