Some of our kids showed significant potential;<br />
however, meeting only once a week at the<br />
homework club, we simply couldn’t invest as<br />
much time and energy into them as we would<br />
have liked.<br />
So, at the beginning of <strong>2018</strong>, we were excited<br />
to launch Shine Little Stars. Three days a week,<br />
we bring kids to our center for an after-school<br />
program in which they learn Romanian,<br />
English, math, music, practical skills, Bible<br />
lessons, social skills, and more.<br />
Mirela, our SLS teacher, applied for and<br />
received a grant for the Little Einstein project,<br />
in which our kids learned about shapes and the<br />
solar system, and had the opportunity to make<br />
their own inventions out of wood.<br />
“I am so excited when I see the kids every day. Sometimes I’m tired<br />
beforehand, but when the kids come in smiling and giving me hugs, I<br />
am ready to give them everything I have in me. We have learned that in<br />
order to succeed at what we do, we must have perseverance.”<br />
~Mirela Robu, SLS teacher
