Last April, I was driving down the new loop on my way home from work (FM 4000) when I saw a girl standing next to a bicycle stranded on the side of the road. I turned around to go back and check on her because I thought she looked familiar. When I got back to her, her dad had just pulled up in a van and they were loading the bike……she waived me on and told me everything was good. This past week I saw the same bicycle on campus, I pulled “Vasti” out of her Work Scholarship duties for a little while to see if that was her bike.
I was not sure if I would be comfortable tutoring students who, in many cases, were the same age as my mom. However, once I got started I realized this was something I love. God gave me a gift of understanding math and science, and I feel blessed to be in the Work Scholarship Program where I have an opportunity of giving back.
