| ScienceDays Voices...
"The
mentors were very knowledgeable, energetic and patient...
The lessons captured the kids' attention, and the kids
really enjoyed participating in all the activities."
-Camp
Counselors, Chapel Hill, NC
"Many
volunteer pursuits are done in the name of college
admissions, but in ScienceDays, once you get involved,
the kids become your motivation. It is a very
personal experience. I started because I love
science and helping others, but now it has become a
bigger experience than that. It physically
connects us with the community...there is a bond
between mentors that we all understand without
directly talking about it, because we have experienced
helping real people in something we love. It has
amounted to much more than we had ever hoped and will
inevitably be an integral part of high school and
beyond."
