We all know that boys love hands on activities and challenges. Every Monday and Thursday, at TM’s carpentry workshop, boys have a special day where they can create things they enjoy and develop their skills.

Accompanied by an expert, they learn the basic steps of carpentry. They first learn to take and make measurements and finish having made complete tables and other crafts. Many of them have discovered a great hobby they did not know they would enjoy and can now express themselves and their struggles through these creations.

At the workshop, you would see a group of boys working hand in hand. Working like this brings them closer together and creates and strengthens friendships. You can feel the group spirit as they help each other and see their focus and their willingness to do and learn more.

With every item they make, their eyes light up and happiness flows. They feel proud of their achievements and eager to show off their handiwork.

For them, carpentry is not only a new skill to learn, but it shapes their personality and character. The workshop is a place for healing, friendships, and hope.
