They have experienced things I cannot even imagine. But then I shared my story, and this kid Justin told me…thanks for that. africa-170He said it helped him. I didn’t know how at all. I left that day thinking I made no impact but then I returned a few months later and the kids were different. africa-fall-08-438The social worker told me…my impact changed these kids…Justin was leading the pack that day.
