My job! making a difference

I have been in New Orleans since Wednesday for a national convention my work sent me to attend. It's the National Aftershool Association 2009 Convention. I mentioned before that I work for a non-profit! Yes, through the city by running a recreation/community center. My experience this week has made me feel so good about myself and what I do. I had no idea that afterschool program is such a big deal in this nation. I had no idea that what I do for my job is such a big cause -- to provide a safe place for children to go to after school.
We provide many activities to help build characters, to boost self esteem, and to improve academic performance.
I love my job!
