TAKATOOF 

Saturday 22/11/2014

4 hours from 9 am untill 1 pm

Near Al Bawadi Mall 

For the fifth time volunteering, we ended up distributing the cloths and jackets that we collected last week
plus some new jackets we received from Red crescent. We gave the poor people of al ain, mainly asians ( indians, 
pakistan) people. They separated us to 2 groups one was in the east of Al Bawadi Mall and the other in the west.
This time i met new people unlike the people i volunteered with last couple of weeks. There were some locals from 
dubai and abu dhabi. It was really a honorable thing that we did helping the poor people, because all of us are humans
we should help each other, not only in UAE but everywhere in the world. The winter here is not that cold, but its for
 poor people that dont have houses or even cloths to survive winter. So thats what we did to help them, giving them cloths.
this might be the last time i volunteer for the college, but it is not the last time to volunteer. Since i know how to volunteer
now i will make some plans in the future.

4 hours from 6 pm untill 10 pm

Al Bawadi Mall Parks


For the 4th time volunteering, they asked us to collect cloths and jackets for the poor people in al ain city. Our job
was simply to collect them and send them to the red crescent ( Al Helal Al Aahmr ), and red crescent is going to distribute
them to the people who are in need of it. We also gave our old cloths and family old cloths, and we merged them with the collection.
Some of us toke the cloths to the assemply points that the rred crescent made in many parts of al ain city, and the rest gave them to 
Takatof truck's who was going to give them to red crescent. I really like volunteering, but volunteering to help poor people is what 
i like the most about volunteering. It is good to volunteer orgnizing events, but helping people is more fun for me.

Al Ain Mall

4 hours Volunteering 8 pm to 12 am


For the third time volunteering, our supervisor ( TAKATOOF Supervisor ) called us and asked
for us to volunteer for the Blood Donation Campaign. Our job was simple and easy, we just had
to prepare the donation bus at Al Ain Mall Parks, and to organize people who wanted to donate
and a part of our group went inside Al Ain Mall to attract people to donate and tell them how
important its to safe the lifes of other people in need of blood. I wanted to donate but i have
a lack of blood, and they told me to eat tomatos to get more blood hahaha.in the End i find that
many people want to donate but they didnt know about the bus, everyone donated young people, old
people, men and women. We also learned that donating blood is something healthier for our bodies.

4 hours Volunteering 8 am to 12pm

Al Ain Sports club for Disabled.


For the second time volunteering we went to Al Ain Sports Club for Disabled.We had to take ideas and orientation in how to deal with disabled people in order for us to volunteer. At the first time we get there, we didn't get a long with them since they don't know us but after a while they got used to us and we had fun playing basketball, well i didn't bring any sport cloths so i was cheering for them instead. We had fun with them and they really had fun with us. We also sat with them and communicating with them while playing small games, at this time exactly we got a long with each other. When our volunteer ended, they really felt bad about us leaving and one of them hugged me( i swear ).

Volunteering with TAKATOOF in Al Ain Mall


This is my first volunteering with TAKATOOF. Many organizations and hospitals in al ain made a BREAST CANCER event at Al Ain Mall for the purpose of donations. We have been asked by TAKATOOF to organize the event from 5 pm until 9 pm. First we did meat with other volunteers such as us, and we got to know each other, then we discussed how to organize and we split the jobs in-between us. Some of us went to be Security Guards around the stage, others went to organize the seats and the stage requirements such as tables, seats, microphones and TVs. For me, my job was bringing the tables and TVs to the stage according to the type of event. The event had many parts, my part was to organize the question&answers event and also to give the prizes to the winners of the event. This was a very nice experience for me since it was my first time, and i feel proud of myself for serving the community. I know its just 4 hours but I am happy that i did it, i spent a good time being there volunteering and it was really fun to meet all the people there. 






Sorry for the lack of pictures, we ended up busy organizing and we had no time to take proper photos.
