"I have decided that giving to small charitable projects which I think worthwhile and is run by people I know to be sincere. It is better than just writing a check to big organisations."

So a couple of us got together this weekend to rig up the Goducate office on a shoe string budget. Key features include a photo exhibition gallery and a magnetic chalkboard wall. Had an excellent team of elves execute this DIY project with me on short notice and these photos capture snippets of the process. To these who so willingly and joyfully gave of their time, strength, talents, gifts and resources towards this cause, thank you for each of you and hope you will fondly remember Operation Goducate. =)

This brand new facility is not the typical youth camp-site but is ideal for “urban” camping. It consists of 6 terrace-houses (connected houses), an internal covered courtyard and a community hall. The whole complex was donated by generous Koreans as a community-center for this part of Indonesia… Continue reading

Last week Goducate opened another literacy center in a swamp in Sabah for poor kids who cannot go to school. Because of the dampness of the swampy soil, the school-house had to be built on stilits.

Goducate provided 500 Malaysian Ringgit (about US$150) for some building material and the community chipped in to build their very own school-house.
