By joining Habitat Voluntary Program, I made a bunch of friends with people all over Indonesia and gained precious experience. Even though it was rather difficult for us to interact with each other due to the pandemic, I felt extremely grateful for the solidarity my team members had.
We all shared our ideas on how to earn the money to donate. At last, we finaled our decision to sell our homemade cookies. By doing so, I picked up various new skills such as baking, products marketing, and etc. As a leader, I also learned how to control and give direction to my fellow members.
