Now is the time for all good mentors to come to the aid of their county! Please contact Cher Bush of the Elbert County Department of Social Services with any questions about the mentoring program.
Please consider the following when considering the role of a mentor:
A person who gives freely is loved by all. It's hard to understand, but it is in giving that we gain strength. But there is a proper time and a proper way to give, and the person who understands this is strong and wise. By giving with a feeling of reverence for life, envy and anger are banished. A path to happiness is found. Like one who plants a sapling and in due course receives back shade, flowers, and fruit, so the results of giving bring joy. Through continuous acts of kindness the heart is strengthened by compassion and giving. -Buddha
