VietnamJUMP 2011 1st Entry

So I decide to take part in this volunteering experience. Students from NUS have the opportunity to go to Vietnam and help to build a school, to teach English and to teach Hygiene etc.

It is, of course, a worthy cause and I really wanted direct experience with actually South East Asian people, outside the capacity of being a tourist. I didn't, however, foresee the amount of effort needed to go into it. I guess that's because there's so many companies willing to do the same for you no hassle.

Anyways, this is an experience within an experience for me and so I'm gonna give updates on how it all comes along and what we do to reach our S$5000 target. (I'm in the Fundraising Team so that's my job =[ )
