Working on Vacation Too
While their friends play on the PlayStation or smartphone, there are also
kids who volunteer on the summer vacation: brothers Ido and Amit from
Akko are just ten and twelve years old, and already they’re instructing
groups of kids their age. The children at the after-school care where they
volunteer don’t have enough money to celebrate a birthday like everyone,
so Ido and Amit do it for them, with games, balloons and cake. Natan from
Jerusalem (has been) running his project already since the age of thirteen –
the Always project, where (they) fix old computers and give them to
families who don’t have a computer. Thirteen year old Yarden doesn’t
spend a lot of time with the smartphone on vacation either, every week he
volunteers at a nursing home in Kfar Saba. Not only are these kids doing
something important, they also say that it’s great fun.
