New Tutoring Program in Nampa

This one meeting in Nampa helped jump start a tutoring program at Ronald Reagan which is led by Angie Daniels center of picture. To her left Pamela Doyle who is district school psychologist. She has been key to work starting in this city which has a serious gang problem.

It is important to take a tiny step in the direction you feel has a need for action. I had also visited Reagan school and seen the need for help.

In this era of instant communication, we must not forget the importance of getting to see the area and listen to people who are there. And of most importance to shape the program around the needs of the children we serve.

In the case of Nampa, we are promoting the most "at risk" children staying in school through the free tutoring by our volunteer team.

Never underestimate what one tiny 
step of a person in a meeting 
can do to change your city.
