<Nuhmuhsuh in March>

In the first week of this month, children in Korean class increased. I have heard that mothers sought for an institution which can teach Korean and Math to their children who turned out to be far behind in the first grade of elementary school in both subjects. So mothers came to Nuhmuhsuh to get some help for their children. Even some mothers of pre-schoolers brought their children to prepare for next year.

They seemed to be greatly surprised to see that their children are learning not only Korean, but piano and art lesson, not to mention five story-books for free to them. It is of course that children were the happiest at Happy Move Mentoring Party.

As all of a sudden as many as 30 children came to study with their mothers, we were lacking of text books. But it is a wonder that one donator gave us a 1,000,000 won worth of department store gift certificate. With it, we could buy the text books for 30 children. Thanks!

Happy Move party planned to make a cup-cake on Mar.25. We prepared materials and gifts for 30 children. We worried a little about whether it was lacking, but everything was okay. And as more than 30 children came to join at Happy Move, every children were so happy.

Recently, every week as many as 20 high school volunteers came, there was no difficulty in running programs. And we are hearing that parents are giving us a very good evaluation about our ministry.

The 10-week art therapy class during winter vacation was ended on Mar. 18. As you know, the group art therapy is divided into three classes: mother, elementary and pre-school. As children and mothers are considering this class as art class, they are confessing why their mind becomes so peaceful and brightened after the class.

A grandmother who is taking care of her grandchildren coming from China is coming to study art alone when children are away for camping. She said it is because of good riddance.

Meanwhile, our office posted our management announcement on the homepage of the Ministry of Culture and Sports through March, and finished to send all reports on donation to tax office. I are not getting any penny from the government, but we are doing our best to save every donated money as much as we can and to openly post on our homepage about donation. Thanks!
