·分享目的

我是川外法语系大三的学生陶楚。今年五月底作为AIESEC的国际志愿者到印尼去做了两个月的流浪儿童教师。今天我很高兴能与大家分享我在印尼期间的点点滴滴。

首先，我希望能有更多人能够去做志愿者帮助他人。改变自己及他人的人生。与此同时，也希望能给他人作一个参考。

其次，我了解到我周围很多朋友都有想做志愿者的意愿。不仅仅是在国内，甚至希望放眼国际其他贫困发展中国家。但是找不到做志愿者的信息渠道。我希望分享我的实习信息渠道，使更多人能够帮助他人，锻炼自己。

最后，我希望能替印尼流浪组织寻找捐赠机会。我本人在那边呆了两个月，在看到孩子们在贫民窟的生存环境后发现教他们英文很难对他们的生活有实质性的帮助。因此我将在以后的日子里一直和他们保持联系并希望为他们做的更多。我回中国，不是结束，而是另一个开始。我回来后把我在印尼拍的孩子们的照片做成了明信片。在分享会结束会我们会有明信片义卖活动。所有的义卖款将全部捐给印尼流浪儿童组织以支持流浪儿童教育。

·实习背景

ISCO Foundation全名是Indonesia Street Children Organisation Foundation(印尼流浪儿童基金会)。ISCO于1999年由法国人Pascal Lalanne与奥地利人Josef Fuchs共同创立。旨在通过贫民窟创办活动教室（Activity House）来帮助贫困家庭的孩子能得到基本教育的机会从而改变流落街头乞讨的命运。这个月十一号，我参加了ISCO创办十周年的庆典。从最初的2个贫民窟的60个贫困儿童发展到如今的17个贫民窟2227个贫困儿童。ISCO的成就有目共睹，值得肯定。

我第一天到ISCO的时候和ISCO执行主席Mrs.Ramida一见面便开始讨论我在ISCO这两个月的目标。她并未因我是志愿者而草草应对。我将在接下来的两个月里与孩子们分享我的所会的一切以及我的人生。我的工作是教授基本的英文，汉语，手工，以及家访。Ramida对我说“你是他们的姐姐，你会成为孩子们记忆的一部分”，我很感动，希望为ISCO寻找捐助机会。

我所工作的贫民窟Pademangan位于雅加达北部。每天需要两个半小时转三次车以及步行才能到达。第一次到贫民窟的时候对孩子们的生存环境极度震惊。人们住在铁路两旁木板搭建的棚屋里。人们赤脚坐在门口，发呆或者无所事事的走来走去。在雨季来临的时候，家里有大部分都泡在水里，环境极其恶劣。在家访的过程中了解到这边贫民家庭的一些基本情况。大部分家庭以捡垃圾卖塑料瓶维或者替人洗衣服维生。有的甚至没有工作，靠路边乞讨过活。家里的父亲多有酗酒的情况。贫富差距巨大的雅加达到处充斥着各种变相乞讨。贫民窟孩子们很小时候便开始弹一种小木琴，当我了解到这并不是兴趣而是乞讨的附加值。我感到震惊，非常痛心。

·选择印尼

回来以后很多人问我为什么选择印尼。与其说是我选择了印尼不如说是印尼选择了我。今年四月时，当我看到印尼流浪儿童基金会的项目的时候，我知道，这是我要去的地方。贫穷，是世界性问题，需要政府之间合作应对。贫困儿童是弱势群体中的弱势人群。对于生活在贫民窟的贫困孩子孩子而言，教育很有可以是改变他们命运的唯一途径。我希望在印尼期间能够对他们的未来有所有帮助。空想可笑，无 梦可悲。我在贫民窟里看到太多的人眼神麻木，无所事事，失去希望，混过一日又一日。教育鼓励贫困的孩子创 造梦想，追寻梦想，成为他们想要成为的自己，从而摆脱贫困。改变命运。我希望让孩子们知道在他们的世界外面有一个完全不同的世界。

·明信片义卖

NGO缺乏财政支持是一个普遍现象。我在印尼贫民窟家访期间发现，ISCO的财政非常紧张。但是他们有自己的主要筹款来源。如食物，少量教材等基本物资可以得到保障。但是孩子们极缺书籍及学习用品。他们甚至会在自己的铅笔上贴上自己的名字。因此我希望为他们募捐资金用以书籍及学习用品的购买。

在广州到雅加达的飞机上我遇到一位在广州做生意的印尼人。当他得知我是去做流浪儿童义工时，决定为他自己国家的孩子做些什么。因为种种，我在离开印尼前一周才联系上他，在走前三天才得到他150美元的捐款。我即将回国，无法监督这笔钱的使用。为了对捐助人负责，我与AIESEC印尼大学的副主席及ISCO的执行主席一起商讨出一种保障捐款用于孩子们的书籍及学习用具的捐赠方式。（具体见义卖款资金流向图）

在印尼找到150美元的捐助后，我决定回国后再筹款给孩子们买书。我很喜欢拍照片，在印尼期间我给孩子们拍了许多照片。我们选取五张做成明信片义卖。我不仅仅希望通过出售明信片筹集捐款，也希望大家在看到这些孩子们的照片后能感染更多人去ISCO做志愿者。ISCO不仅极度缺乏资金，也极度缺乏教师资源。社会工作者的地位低下是发展中国家一个普遍现象，印尼也不例外。极低的薪金加上贫民窟的恶劣的工作环境导致师资匮乏。贫民窟的老师一个人要教40个孩子全科。如果有人愿意直接捐助ISCO或者直接去ISCO做志愿者请联系在分享会后联系我们，谢谢。

Project Intro

TAO Chu,a junior of  Sichuan International Studies University,have participated a volunteer program run by ISCO (Indonesia Street Children Organization) in May 2009 via AIESEC CQU. She taught classes to children living in slum conditions, hoping to plant curiosity and visions of the future to them.

In this duration,She visited her students’ homes to assess how to integrate ISCO-specific educational programs. Despite her limited Indonesian, she was touched and motivated by their hospitality. However, the extreme poverty in which the people lived totally shocked her. Most parents barely made a living by collecting rubbish.

TAO tried to help. She felt education would be the best way to do so. Therefore, she planned to raise funds for supplying reading materials .TAO preserved ISCO children’s innocent faces with her camera and her heart. After going back to China, She initiated a charitable project, Children of Tomorrow, with CQU AIESECers and friends to raise funds.

We will sell postcards made of TAO’s photos of ISCO children. To eliminate public skepticism,we wrote this blog that updates our process and published the blog address on the backs of the postcards.

 Project Goal

·Raise funds for ISCO children to supply material purchases

·Recruit voulunteers for ISCO, build a link with ISCO

Supervision of raised fund

·Publish details on peoject blog after termination (bank transfer and ISCO purchase list)

·This blog is published on the back of every postcard

陶楚将于7月28日晚7点在西西弗矢量咖啡与您分享她的志愿者生活，敬请关注！

Let’s start from,
