My day started like this:
10am - class
Things to do today - organise the pick up of 31 sets of computers and monitors for distribution to the needy given by Informatics Campus.
11am - Transport by volunteer still not confirmed for pick up today at 4pm
12pm - Transport still not confirmed but volunteer trying his best. Pray.
3pm - Call from volunteer's friend to pick up computers on his behalf with a van instead of his lorry. Trouble... Van is not large enough to transport all the computers. Problem!
3.05pm - Rack my brain whilst having a late lunch after class. Remembered a friend who runs an ambulance service. Try, call for help!
3.30pm - one van and two ambulances race to pick up 31 computers and 2 lap tops.
5pm - work done
10 computers arrives for local sg families
10 computers goes off to start of a new day care centre
11computers on its way to JB orphanage and homes
2 laptops sent to stat a computer class in kupang Indonesia ( need 8 more!)
Moral of the story:
Be who you are
Be where you are
Be available when you can
And this would make a world of difference to the those in need!
Many thanks to all who have come so generously and willingly to help the poor. Special thanks to informatics for the computers, medic network for taking time out to rescue computers for the poor, also to Chris Bek, Samuel, Eric and all his helpers.
God Bless,
Mill
