The work is so rewarding, and the center does so much to help those in our community.0:07
I was surprised when I first came and they asked me to help the disabled learn computer skills.0:13
Then I helped out in the children's program.0:18
The sports and art classes offered are really great for kids.0:21
Recently, I have been working with seniors, and I really enjoy it.0:25
We play board games together, and I also like reading to them.0:29
I'm glad I got involved.0:33
This weekend, make sure you head down to Chesterfields for the Sunshine Festival.0:38
It's all for a great cause, the River Conservation Project.0:43
After a delicious pancake breakfast, everyone is invited to play football in the Sunshine Cup.0:48
After enjoying lunch at the various food stands, take in the displays about the river ecosystem and how to protect it.0:54
Finally, finish the day off with a dance party and listen to some great bands.1:02
What a great way to spend the weekend!1:08
I was so excited to ski in the race and help out such a good cause.1:15
I was, however, a bit let down that more people didn't show up to support the event.1:20
In the end, it didn't matter though, as we had a really fun time in the snow.1:25
When I crossed the finish line, I was so pleased with myself for getting involved in such a great day.1:29
You picked a rather unusual topic for your first independent film.1:38
I know, it's a heavy subject— children living on the street.1:43
There are some great charities doing some great work to help these kids.1:46
I wanted to create awareness about this serious problem, and hopefully more people will get involved.1:50
You really touch on the lives of these kids.1:55
Yes, I owe a lot to my film school and what I learned there.1:58
I wanted my first film not to be about making money, but to bring an important message to the public.2:02
It's embarrassing sometimes.2:10
People just ignore me, as if I'm not there.2:12
I don't know which is worse.2:17
Just because I can't walk well doesn't mean I can't work.2:19
All my friends have jobs, and I hate staying at home doing nothing.2:23
I'm lucky I have my parents, otherwise I would be on the streets.2:27
I'm telling you, Paul, it's only going to get worse.2:34
We all have to do our part.2:38
You'll really regret it if you don't come.2:40
People are bringing their electronic waste and recyclable rubbish to the park tomorrow.2:43
I'll be there early and can show you what to do and how to separate the items.2:47
I'm counting on you, so what do you say?2:52
Although illiteracy rates have declined significantly over the past 35 years, it is important to note many countries still have high rates.2:59
I'm pleased to say there are many excellent programmes in effect that are trying to combat illiteracy and look into the causes of it.3:08
This said and done, I can't emphasise enough the effect illiteracy has on the economic status of an individual, with illiterate people generally having a low economic status.3:16
Its importance cannot be underestimated.3:27
It's unbelievable how many animals we are able to help.3:33
Considering the lack of space and food we have to take care of them.3:37
Thankfully, we have enough people who care and help out, otherwise it would be impossible to help all the animals we do.3:41
Now, if only we could raise more funds to improve the shelter.3:48
