Children looking to the future

Children looking to the future
 
   With the help of sponsorship from the New Hope Foundation, a group of students
from Taitung have been given the wonderful opportunity of traveling to Taipei City,
to broaden their horizons and search for inspiration in life. Following on from
their ancestors lives, which were often full of struggle, these young students
excitedly participated in this finely orchestrated trip, where they visited TV
stations, met world-class street dance performers, listened to the stories of
successful entrepreneurs and enjoyed the creativity of fashion designers.

    This year’s trip leader is Chen Jung-chia from the Amis Tribe, who as a child
was uncommunicative and shy. However, after participating in the Light of the
Eastern Taiwan Project (東光計畫開始) he slowly began to develop self-confidence,
enjoy more human interaction, and learn how to how to appreciate what he had.
He also began to have some insight into his own dreams for the future.

    Currently in Taiwan, Taitung has over 400 students just like Jung-chia,
who through the Light of the Eastern Taiwan Project’s financial assistance and
school tutoring have managed to fully concentrate on their studies. It is wonderful
to see the growth and transformation in the students, and witness the expectations
and dreams they hold for the future shine forth from their eyes.

    有一群來自台東的學生,經由新希望基金會東光計畫的贊助,有了一趟到台北探尋夢想,
大開眼界的機會。這群年輕學子興奮的參與精心安排的行程,他們參觀電視台、 認識頂尖的街舞高手、
聆聽企業家力爭上游的經過、欣賞服裝設計師的創意, 在前輩的奮鬥故事中尋找自己的夢想。

   今年夢想之旅的隊長就是來自阿美族的少年,陳榮嘉。榮嘉過去是沉默害羞的孩子,但參加了東光
計畫開始,建立了自信心,有了更多的人際互動,開始學習感恩,也開始有了屬於自己未來的夢想。

    目前在台東有四百多位像榮嘉一樣的學生,參加了東光計畫,靠著補助的經費,讓他們可以專心就學,
平時也提供學生們課業輔導。這當中看到許多孩子的轉變與成長,也看到年輕台東學生未來的美好夢想光
芒,就閃耀在他們期待的眼神中。
