What We Have Been Up To Lately

Youth Leadership Board Meeting: 

On November 12, the Growing Our Youth Program hosted its third Youth Leadership Board meeting. During the meeting, students helped stuff calendars that will be given to staff, clients, and contributors of The Gift of Life Foundation during the holiday season. Also, Jessica discussed upcoming events and the students looked over the t-shirt design they created for the 2012 Youth Leadership Board t-shirt.

Youth Leadership Service Project at M.A.N.E.:

Today students from the Youth Leadership Board went to volunteer at the Montgomery Area Nontraditional Equestrians center. Students watched a short video representing M.A.N.E.'s mission and then went right to work. Students helped paint the office of the M.A.N.E center, which was a lot of fun. The Youth Leadership Board members worked so hard and really made an effort to paint as much as they could. After painting, students were allowed to go into the stables and see all of the horses. They really enjoyed getting to pet the horses and see what M.A.N.E. is all about. Overall, it was a great morning at M.A.N.E.  The service project was a lot of fun and was definitely worth all the hard work.
