Open a window of light for a closed heart
The Tainan City Metta Mental Care Association was established in 1996. It serves people with disabilities over the age of 15. It is composed of a group of parents of people with mental disabilities. They plan to build a positive environment for their children with a heart of "compassion". A "light" warm residence and beading as a training project have become the characteristics of the association. The purpose is to allow children to continue learning in the association after graduating from twelve years of education.
Imperfection is the most beautiful
For "Slow Angels", the process of learning bead making requires more effort and time than ordinary people. It often happens that they cannot find the holes for beads or scatter beads all over the floor. However, Slow Angels are not afraid of hardship or tiredness. , under the careful instruction of the teachers, they have grown and improved bit by bit. Through hand-beading, they have trained hand-eye coordination and the use of large and small muscle groups in their arms and fingers. During the process, they have constantly tried, made mistakes and made corrections. When they complete a work , the inner joy and sense of accomplishment are as brilliant as a blooming sunflower. Beaded works are sold through multiple marketing channels such as physical stalls and online platforms. The income from sales is the children's work bonus. They hope that the public will see their efforts. Everyone's support and affirmation will make Slow Angel like a butterfly emerging from a cocoon, find its own piece of heaven and become self-sufficient.
Only by being known can you have a chance
"Only by being known can you have opportunities." There needs to be a platform and channel for Metta Mind to be seen, so that the public can understand its services and be more willing to support students in purchasing products.
