Compare with the small, broken hut the family had before, I hope that the house we built can provide a better and safer living condition for them. I really hope that the house will help the family to realize the positive side of the society and motivate them to seek for a better life. I've also learned a lot from being a part of the construction project. Before, I thought it is impossible to build a new house only by a group of high school students who have no experiences with construction at all. Now I realize that a small group of people can still have great power, and we can achieve our goal as long as we determine to do so. Seeing the family living a such poor life, most of our members including me had set our minds to put in effort to change their life. Finally, our determination led us to accomplish the house. It had changed my idea, and now I believe that if we set our minds to do something, nothing is impossible.

I hope the family will like the house that we built, also I hope they think is safe to live in the house. I also learned how to be a good collaborator in a group. I really hope they have a better life in the new house. From this project, my idea has changed, teamwork is so powerful. Many good collaborators can lead to a good teamwork, it helps to build a house perfectly.

I really hope that with a better house the family will have better rest and a greater sense of security. I really hope that the house will protect the family from the rains during the rainy season and the heat. I feel that from bundling the house I have discovered a love for services projects (specifically building/construction projects). I think the project changed my idea of thankfulness and satisfaction.

I hope that the new house can make the family's live much easier, their old house was simple and crude, and when the sun comes up the whole family was exposed to the sun. It really hard for them to live under an environment like that. The house we built for them can make them live under the roof, in the shadow, the temperature could be much lower. This service project also changed me a lot because when we were building the house, we have to work in a tough and hot condition. By this experience, I know how to build a house and learned how to work in a hard condition in a long time.

Furniture and electricity is two things which the family definitely needs to has. Furniture means coaches and beds. That is how the family sleeps. Also,electricity will provide the family entertainment such as television and Internet. This service project lets me know two things. One is: wherever people are, whatever people have, people should have a happy life because environment and things are not the point which make people feel happy. Second,the project lets me know that if people are unite, nothing is impossible.

I know our new house will change the family's life quality a lot and our goods also can help them a long time, but all of them cannot help them forever. I mean maybe we cannot really change their life if they are not change themself. Actually the most important thing that I want to help them is help them find a way to change their life forever. Maybe we cannot really let this thing come true in few days but I still think this is a good way. And this time the most important thing I learn is if people never go outside they will never know what is the world looks like.

I just hope that the house could stay stable, or the family will be in danger. I also hope that the family can be happy everyday, don't need to worry about food or something else. At the beginning, I was thinking that if they could have more money, more cloth, etc. But now, I just wish that they can be happy. More money can only bring trouble and regret to them. So I just wish that they can be happy everyday.

I really hope that they will have a better rest at night times, and also have a more stabilized living condition, hope that they will be fine during rainy days or other bad weather conditions, they won't need to be worried about their houses anymore. The whole even made me realized that there're really a lot of people in this world needs help, even a little cabin may change their lives, I started to more appreciate the life I'm living now.

There is a big change after we finishing building the house for them. I hope this family can have a better rest and get more help and supports. Their lives are tough, but I can see how the people in the village care about them and help them. The relationship between this family and the other smilies in the village really shocked me. Though we only have few day and we can only build one house for the families like this, I hope they can enjoy their life much better after they move in and hope their children have a bright future.

I hope the biggest change in the family is safety. Before their house looked extremely fragile, it could have been torn down with some heavy wind. But, now that they have a sturdy and stronger house, I hope they will both feel and be more safe in their house. I hope the house we built for them will become their home where they feel the safest, and don't have to worry about it coming down. For me, the service project has changed me by learning to never give up in times of difficulties. Many times when I was hammering the nails, I would accidently hammer my finger or my arms would get really sore. Regardless, I persevered and got all of my tasks done!

I hope the family will have a better living condition and environment. Although the house we built was simple, but I really hope the family have life quality improvements. The house building project changed me because I learned that there are so many people in the world suffering from lack of shelters, foods and daily supplies. Us as students in international school should feel lucky of everything we got, and use all the resources we've got sufficiently.

I hope that the house that we built for the family can help them have a better rest, and maybe the father can work harder and earn more money for the family beacause of the better rest. This service project changed me lot. It made me know the importance of team work because I can't build the house by myself.
