This past week, Circle of Hope's compassion team, For the Love of Childs, organized several Circle of Hopers to volunteer on Career Day at G.W. Childs School. Megan Rosenbach, the team’s leader, spoke to 4th and 7th graders about working at a non-profit organization that is helping to make Philadelphia a more bike friendly city. Nic Justice talked to a 5th grade class about film making. And LeeAnn Wood got some of her co-workers from Urban Outfitters to speak to the kids about careers in fashion. Ben White (Circle of Hope’s Development Pastor) and Anthony So, a computer/web programmer, were also present at the event. Several other members of the neighborhood group that the compassion team started, Neighbors Investing in Childs Elementary (NICE), also spoke with students about their careers throughout the day! It was a terrific opportunity to inspire children with ideas and dreams of the future.
