When we teach our youth the value of community service, every population benefits. Children with giving hearts are more likely to think empathetically and treat others with respect. That is why at GOTR, our girls create and host a Community Impact Project of their choosing. By learning the value of helping others, they grow and unlock a light inside of themselves π©·
Recently, our team at Frances Scott Elementary School brainstormed phrases and made posters to motivate everyone at school and beautify the gym. Great work! π«Ά
