I've had the pleasure of serving in a few of Mind Treasures classes for elementary children. The changes I have seen in the participants are amazing. A 4th grader writes, "I loved the program because they treated us like adults." A high school senior writes, "What I have learned in this program has prepared me for the sacrifices I'll need to make for my future spouse & children." A parent writes,"My child brought her learning home every week and taught it to her siblings."

Just like music is universal, so is mind treasures. Mind Treasures is for any age or gender. It is basic financial literacy needed by all. But more than about money, it is about character development. Mind Treasures teaches about tools needed to handle money (little or much). Especially, patience, self-discipline and moderation. We can talk about everything developed inside of us. Mind Treasures teaches on responsibility, truthfulness, and generosity. Children can learn to be thankful for all things. It is not just about MONEY!!!!

I serve as a member of law enforcement, currently assigned to the Juvenile Adminstration Unit. I initially had the opportunity to observe the Mind Treasures curriculum being taught in an after school program. The students that were in attendance varied in age, yet all appeared to be so captivated by the training. I was blown away both by the training and the student particiaption. As it currently stood, I had no room on my calendar to volunteer for "another program," but Mind Treasures was different. I made myself available to volunteer in an way possible. I absolutely love the positive change that Alex Mazloom and his staff are doing in the lives of families with this program.

We were always looking for a school in Africa to support, where we help with children's nourishment and education needs. Dollar a Month Fund helped us find such school and we are regularly update with the school's and with students' progress. We even got a chance to communicate with the students through DMF's efforts.

I had the wonderful privilege working with Mind Treasures. There are two representatives from Mind Treasures per class. Recently, I worked with the primary grades and it was so much fun. I love to see how positiveness can motivate minds. The students are eager to learn and express themselves using there new found knowledge. At the end of the program we asked the students what they learned and what impressed them the most, I was very surprised by the responses. The students were very specific on what they learned and how much of an impact it had on their lives. One student expressed his desire to stop wasting food when he eats because so many children do not have anything to eat. He also stated that he will start taking smaller portions in an effort to not waste food. Another student told me that she learned how to be selfless and not selfish, and that she wanted to donate the toys she was no longer using. This non profit organization not only teaches students how to become better adults, but also how to become wiser adults when it comes to spending and using money. Throughout the program we use a register, at the end of our workbooks, for students to calculate how much money they are spending, sharing and saving. It teaches students the importance in saving for something they want and not spending money carelessly. It also helps children to see the importance in giving back to the community to help make it better. I hope to always be a part of this excellent program!

Mind Treasures is like a beautiful flower in the blooming process. It is a program that tenderly nurtures our sensative areas with rich teachings of life's most important and needed disciplines. It teaches how to take from life what is essential for healthy growth as each blossom must depend on for beauty and stregnth. Mind Treasures teaches each student how to give back to thier community and to society in general, a generous portion of love with a spiritual twist that is contageous and promotes peace. It thrives in children as their learning roots are hungry for the proper food; but it works for adults that are anxious to contribute in a way that benefits all. Mind Treasures is over the top in uniting quality humans.

My experience in the program was every other week. I worked with 2nd and 3rd graders. One thing that stood out was the reception we recieved as we went through the lessons. Not all students were able to grasp the idea as quickly as others. But eventually they did. Watching the transformation was beautiful. They were like the sponges you hear so much about when it comes to teaching that age group. Some of the positive comments they made at the end of the program were very uplifting to know we accomplished what we set out to do. It was a very positive and excellent experience for me. I would recommend this program to any school or educational institution. I'm sure there is a program for any age group. I regret I have since been employed and will not be able to participate in the next session.
The Great!
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
Listening to comments made by students after the sesion was over at their "graduation". Many positive comments were made. Some of the parents said they were glad their children had the experience. Some said their children came home and made efforts to help their parents apply what they learned, such as not wasting food.
Ways to make it better...
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
I don't know of any. Maybe longer hours for each class or more often than every other week.

What one change could this group make that would improve your volunteer experience?
I can't think of any.
Did your volunteer experience have an effect on you? (teaching you a new skill, or introducing new friends, etc.)
Oh yes it did. We are to be an example to all children more than we realize. I definitly enjoyed the group I worked with and would readily work with them again.
How did this volunteer experience make you feel?
Great!
