|  About
two years ago, I went to a meeting at Chestnut Elementary to sign my daughter
up for Brownies. I met the most encouraging and wonderful woman. …
She was a single mom, like myself, and was there to encourage new troop
formation.
I could not
manage to be a troop leader at the time and was not able to coordinate
my schedule to have my daughter in Brownies. She called on a consistent
basis and showed me a door that I thought I could never walk through.
What a seed she planted! The next year we formed a troop out
of my daughter's school and I became a co-leader.
I know everyone feels
the tremendous joy when helping others. Watching my daughter and the other
girls grow has made me recognize that one person can make a difference.
You can change the world with only one person. I look at the lives I am
touching, as someone once did for me. Thank you so much for the opportunity
and the open door.
