What else can I say about our volunteers...except that we NEED and APPRECIATE each one of them dearly. Without our volunteers and their willing hearts to give back to their community we would not be able to run our programs. Each time we start the new year, our mission is like the American Idol search for the best in the land. We keep our eyes, ears, and did i mention eyes...out for individuals, like the ones working with us, who are passionate about working with the youth, motivated to educate, and have the willingness to express the passion and compassion for our students.
To better put into words how much we love and adore our volunteers this eloquently phrased poem by Margaret A. Francis is appropriate.
The Volunteer
The Volunteer is one with a heart so sincere.
No task too large, no task too small,
Who will help with anything at all.
Who will be there in the morning light,
Or help in the dark of night.
The Volunteer, our extra hand,
On whose future our Children Stand.
Never anyone so dear as a GH Volunteer !
