Adventures in Learning
|
This is a program for gifted
young'uns. I was an actual student in the program at the age of
9, in 1991. It was a mixed experience. However, the AIL
program has become a much bigger and more positive part of my life from
the other side, as one of the adults in charge. I devoted two
weeks of every summer to AIL from 2001 to 2006, and I've continued to
help out as much as possible since then.

This is part of a chain of
creative writing / homework help centers for elementary through high
school kids. I discovered it because I lived near their excellent
storefront,
and I spent a year and a half in '06-'08 being one of their drop-in
tutors.

Multifaith Works
|
This is a non-profit
organization up in Seattle. I volunteered with
the AIDS Care
Teams portion of the program for a year and a half from 2005 to
2006; I found it very
rewarding.

This is my husband. He

Here is one
