Overall Experience

Very Enjoyable and Rewarding!
 |
I've been a Children's Volunteer at The Center For Women & Children In Crisis for 6 wks. now and I absolutely love it! Its so enjoyable and rewarding to be able to interact with the kids every week and plan activities for them. I'd recommend this opportunity to anyone who is creative and simply enjoys being around kids! posted by annapplejuice on December 30, 2004 |
