The “Hello, Dear 18!” event organized by Good Neighbors International concluded successfully with the participation of more than 250 sponsored children aged 16–18 from six project areas.

In a vibrant and energetic atmosphere, the students had the opportunity to discover themselves and find answers to their concerns through nine exciting experience stations. At the first two stations, “Who Am I?” and “Career Exploration,” the students gained a better understanding of themselves through personality tests and hands-on experiences in various professions such as beverage making, cooking, and hairdressing. They also received enthusiastic guidance from university students regarding choices related to universities, colleges, and studying abroad opportunities.

In addition, the recycled bag painting station and the robotics experience station helped the students explore topics related to environmental protection as well as science and technology.

Most especially, the most beloved area was “Growing Up Together,” where the students looked back on their journey of growing up and exchanged heartfelt wishes with one another. GNI hopes that the “Hello, Dear 18!” event will remain as a sweet memory in the hearts of the students, and encourages them to confidently express themselves and pursue the right direction for their future.
