TESTIMONIALS FROM VOLUNTEERS

“Sometimes you don’t make good choices but it is what you do afterwards. My hope is that I have made good choices and that they understand these choices stay with them for a lifetime.” – Lisa A. Charpentier, Circle Mentor

“I feel honored that these wonderful girls trust me with their deepest secrets and fears with open hearts. We learn to share, laugh and meditate; these girls are wonderful! They give me their love and trust freely. We’re growning, learning, and having fun.” –Mary Ann McLeod, Circle Camp Counselor

“Having a spunky, intelligent, resourceful nine-year old enter into my life brought me face to face with myself. Every minute I spend with her, I am challenged to listen without judgment, accept situations I have no control over, and acknowledge the wonders of her incredible ability to survive in a world she offers me glimpses into.” – Janice Montague, Circle Mentor

“When I received an envelope from Paula with my new ‘friend’ for the next two years, I anxiously opened it up and pulled out the information inside…First we spoke on the phone and set up a date to go kayaking. She had never gone before. Her first introduction to a ‘new adventure.’ She loved it so much that she wanted to go again, so we set up a date to do it on our next meeting.” –Brenda Mento, A Circle Mentor
