17-YEAR-OLD VOLUNTEER INVESTS IN CHILD’S LOVE FOR READING

CityBeat   -  

We love this story from our incredible volunteer, Jenny!

“I got to meet this young girl a couple of weeks ago at an event we were having with CityBeat Baltimore. She was so sweet and told me the love she had for reading. Hearing her mom talk about some of the things they were going through broke my heart. She is so sweet despite everything she’s been through. I gave her a couple of books yesterday and seeing her face light up made my heart melt. One day when she is older, I hope she remembers the people in blue shirts who were out every month trying to love on the neighborhood. A small sacrifice can be the biggest impact on someone else’s life!”
