Location : Abu Dhabi  Marina mall.

==================================================================

Today I would like to talk about my first participation with Takatuf which is one of the greatest  organization in the UAE for volunteering , the event was about city guard which is a new application launched in 2013,it is available in phones ,the purpose of this app is for making Abu Dhabi one of the best city in the world by making an opportunity for the residents and whole community to report any case and issue that happened in  Abu Dhabi.

 The first job that we did, is distributing brochures for  a big number of people to deliver them the idea of this app, I faced something that i didn't like when I was giving the people the brochures which that some people were ignoring me when I want to help them by giving them information about this application but some of them are really wanting to know about that so I was curious and excited to explain everything for them. While we give the visitors the good idea about this app. Also we taught them how to use the app and publish any case  by using any device.

Finally , I feel happy when I see the people understanding the app and how they are excited about it.

==================================================================

I was explaining for this visitor how to use the app and how to submit a case.

==================================================================

Here I was giving him the brochure and I was waiting for any question to help him with 

the information.

9. What problems might came across and how would we try to get around them?

Communication could be a problem or a barrier that face the volunteers, Since English is not their first language and they are still learning to prefect it. However we can overcome it by technology such as online translating. The volunteers must be patient as much as they can because there are few people who are ignoring them since they want to help them.
