RRYEP 1st meeting was a group discussion with about 18 girls ranging from ages 8 – 12 years old. Our first meeting was very interesting. We discussed Self Love and Self Esteem. All the girls got handouts and affirmations to take home and got to take turns reading out loud. It was good to know that most of the girls were well educated in these areas. We then had a little fun doing crossword puzzles with Spring themes. We really look forward to planning this year’s Summer Enrichment Program. We look to partner with other organizations and people who have similar missions because the need for help is island wide. This is truly the planting of a great seed, that no doubt will sprout into many blessings! [Show as...
