Mentor & Mentee...their story

YOU, TOO, CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN A CHILD'S LIFE

I've been meeting with 7 year old Charlie for the whole school year and today I found out that it means a whole lot to him.  He woke up with a stomach ache from too much food the night before and his mom told him he had to stay home from school.  He said today was Tuesday, his mentor day, and he would miss his time with me and he begged her to let him go.

His mom called me and asked if I would come to the house for mentor time instead of at the school ( we have off campus priveledges) and I agreed to it.  By the time I got there in the afternoon he was all better and all smiles when we went to the park.

Made my day, too!
