Infinity Charity & Welfare Organisation - Skills are important

We believe there are two types of student, the academic kids and the ones who fail in academic. We are not doing enough for those who fail. They need a more physical, tactile approach, involving people skills, team-building, problem-solving or building things. If a child is a “hands-on" learner, they tend to learn better when some type of physical activity is involved.
Every child has their own skills, abilities and uniqueness which can contribute to others and bring great joy to others and them. It does not matter if a child cannot get flying colours in education but it does matter so much in this era when the child does not have any talent or skills to enhance themselves.
For example, an arts education helps to build academic skills and increase academic performance, while also providing alternative opportunities to reward the skills of children who learn differently.
Ever anyone wondered, what happens if we lose our permanent job and you do not know any other job besides of what you were doing all the while? Not everything is permanent in life and of course there is no job security where employees are retrenched these days due to downturn of an organization. There should be an alternative to move forward and to earn for living without depending solely with an office job. 
Obviously, every child should be given the best possible opportunity to acquire mastery of skills. On September 2016, we received a call from a guardian from Pusat Jagaan Kanak-Kanak Istimewa Lagenda requesting us to look for sponsor for Sharmila Devi, a 16 years old teenager to attend a short baking course. According to guardian, she is not keen into studies and she is not doing very well but she is interested in baking. We at Infinity Charity & Welfare Organisation decided to sponsor her as what she learns at the baking course will definitely help her in future.




Good luck girl!
