As a volunteer at the Boys and Girls Clubs of Indianapolis I work with at risk youth every day I am at the Club. I see kids come into the clubs and see adults leave. It is amazing the social touch points we have with these kids and what we teach them everyday at the clubs. We get talk about right from wrong, why drugs are bad and just because your parents didn't go to college doesn't mean you can't. It truly is an honor to be a part of such a wonderful group.
The Great!
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
Watching kids who don't get to eat food at home and watch them eat food at the club and get healthier. It is a great feeling to provide a child with their only meal of the day, otherwise they would go hungry. I feel like I make a difference.
Ways to make it better...
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
I would get more volunteers involved because once you work with these kids for one day you feel better about yourself. Plus the club needs all the help it can get.
MY ROLE:
Volunteer & I work in the snack line at one club.
