Changing the world at S.T.A.R.T.S.

We often use the tagline "Changing the World, one Child at a Time' when describing what YesWeServe is about.
Last year was a horrible one at school for six year old "Mindy".  She had no friends; all the other kids spoke Spanish, and she didn't.  Insecure, and feeling unloved, she spent recess by herself, facing away from the other children, staring at the wall, and chewing her finger nails.  She was also doing very poorly in school.
"Mindy" has been coming to S.T.A.R.T.S. since the beginning, three weeks ago.  A shy, frail, introverted little girl when we first met her, has now become... - better hear it from her legal guardian, who now is beaming when she picks her up at the end of the day; "She has completely come out of her shell!  Because she is part of S.T.A.R.T.S., the other kids now wave to her, smile and greet her by name when they meet at school.  She participates with the other children, and her school work has improved drastically.  She is so happy!"
Wheteher we walk single-file - well, almost single-file  : )  - from Luther Burbank Elementary to the S.T.A.R.T.S. site, or put in extra extra time to help a child with his homework or enjoy their imaginative creations during crafts time, or guide them through P.E. drills, or ---- we are inspired by the positive change we see in someone like "Mindy"!
