I have volunteered a lot, but one of my favorite places to volunteer is at a Junior Achievement Biz Town. I like to volunteer here because it affects the children that it contacts powerfully. Biz Town is a simulated town with jobs like adults have. It teaches the children how to balance their money and the importance of hard work and responsibility. There are CEO’s of each business that pay for the electricity, the phone and other bills that real businesses would have to pay. Each business has a quota for the things it sells, or vouchers for services like trash or medical. They have a mayor, judge and police to make the town run smoothly, and the construction workers end up building a bench. It helps impact problems of a lazy America, that does not know the rewards of hard work. This organization shows first hand that it is worth it. After the day is done the kids feel proud of their job well done. It is very expensive to run a town like this, and through donations and volunteers many under privileged schools are able to participate in hopes that this will instill in them a good work ethic and help them with a job in the future. Also individual children are sponsored for a summer program that would not know responsibility or have the privilege to be put in a situation to learn it. I have volunteered as a chaperon probably 5 or 6 times. I assist the children in their jobs and help them with things such as paying the bills on the computer, setting appropriate prices and break schedule. Many under privileged schools do not have parent support, and lack volunteers so the company brings in their own for schools like that, including me. As a volunteer I feel that I have learned as much as the kids do. Seeing the CEO’s take charge and the kids shine as a salesman is a joy and really shows what kind of worker they will grow up to be. This program is the best indication of how this young person will be, and it is a wonder to see them develop responsibility, and though I know none of the kids, at the end of the day I am proud of them. This is a worthwhile cause to help out, as it never turns a kid away from such an amazing experience because they are unable to pay. They host many events and have celebrity sponsors helping those schools who cannot pay and in order to create more Biz Towns so others may also have this joy.

I am beginning my 14th year as a volunteer reader for kindergarten and first grade students with less opportunity. My students are all English Language Learners living below the poverty level. I continue to be a reader because, as a retired bilingual elementary school teacher, I know that hearing the language in well written books and seeing engaging, supporting illustrations will stimulate a child's desire to read.If they want to read, it will make the teacher's job of teaching them to read much easier. children need books in their homes and this program makes it possible for me to give each child two new, quality books every year to start or add to their own personal libraries. They can hardly believe that they really get to keep the book. Their eyes light up when they see their own name on the bookplate I put in every book. Students often come up to me and tell me that they still have the books that I gave them years before and that they have read them many times as well as shared them with other family members. They tell me that they keep the books in a safe place where the dog can't chew them or their baby sister can't mess them up. They tell me that they get public library cards and check out the books that I have read to them.When I see the children and hear their comments, I know that my time is well spent. <br> <br> A literate population make a country strong. Rolling Readers helps the United States reach that goal, one child at a time. I am pleased that I can help in some small way.
