For some people that's a week of groceries and we realize that.
I have the best job in the world. There's something new and different every day. And I get to see people's lives transformed.
I'm serious. If you have taught a child to tie his shoe you have the basic tools you need.
If someone is told from the time they are a child that they can't learn or they are stupid, it's a self-fulfilling prophecy.
It's hard to find volunteers who'll give five or six hours a week. Their commitment level is unbelievable.
It's only baby if you present it that way. If you say the color and texture will help them learn, they're eager.
Once somebody learns it's like a miracle to them. We tripled our students that year. We were visible and we had the money to add staff.
One of the reasons we have been so successful as a staff is every single staff person was a volunteer before being a staff member.
Our volunteers' hearts and souls are with these students and you can't pay for that. Money can't buy that kind of commitment.
Some adults feel intimidated by school, intimidated by the teacher, intimidated by the kind of homework their children are bringing home. It makes it difficult to be a part of things if you don't have the skills you need.
