Speaking of young minds, last year Newton Mentoring started a program to place trained adult mentors with children in the community to provide support, tutoring and counseling and also to exemplify a constructive role model.
We are more than pleased that more than 30 folks volunteered for this program. This past week their efforts were honored with a reception at the Newton County Schools' administration building.
Volunteerism is special time that you can give of yourself to help our community; to volunteer to help develop the character of our young people is the most rewarding kind of volunteerism.
We salute the special Newton Mentoring volunteers and coordinators - your efforts are helping make our future brighter.
