SERVICE LEARNING IS UP & RUNNING. ARE YOU?
"Each week when I enter the Ford School, one boy in particular greets me with a smile and immediately I feel welcome. We are years apart, but he makes me laugh as if he was one of my best friends. I wouldn't trade my experience working with these kids for anything because it has truly been life-changing." - Sophie Katzman Marblehead High School '10, on volunteering with Reading Buddies.
Not doing a spring sport? Want to do something with your friends? It's not too late to sign up for this outstanding opportunity. A few hours of your time can make a huge difference!
