To others, they may look like just a few drumsticks and a couple of lion heads.But for the children at Jing Sun Welfare Society they are a wayto learn how to face life on their own.
We don’t have big funds or fixed sponsors.Over the years, donations have decreased, while daily expenses keep rising.The children’s school fees, meals, medical needs, and rent —we have to piece them together bit by bit, however we can.
So we decided to teach the children different skills —from lion dance, face-changing performance, and the 24 Festive Drums team,toa small singing group.Step by step, they moved from the practice room to the stage.
Some kids got blisters on their hands from drumming.Some were so nervous during their first performance that they trembled. But every time they finished a show and heard the audience applaud, for that moment, they were not “orphans” — they were the stars on stage. This wasn’t just a performance; it was their way of rebuilding confidence.
