On 15/10/08 the restaurant was booked for an
hour from 1.45pm to 2.45pm by the teachers and students from St
Hilda's Secondary School.
After the brochures were handed out, Benny
introduced himself and shared his story on his struggles with
drug addiction and how it had landed him in prisons numerous
times. He also emphasized that it was not easy to kick the habit
and reintegrating back into society was not an easy task and
that there are other options in life instead of being in the
clutches of drugs and crimes.
Lunch was served shortly after Benny's
sharing of his experience, strength and hope. The staffs also
mingled with the students and teachers making them more aware of
the culture of the restaurant.
The students also left their mark after
dessert by scribbling onto our glass panels with the markers we
provided.
