“... I would like to have mORE HOmEwORk.” — krisTina Backa, 8, Sudduth Elementary


At the age of 17, Caroline Whittington already is mastering the art of balance. Soon to begin her senior year at New Hope High School, Whittington knows the importance of giving back, while staying on track.

Her list of volunteer activities is long, but she also manages, between her studies, to find time to babysit four neighborhood children several afternoons each week and work at New Hope Pharmacy three days a week.

“I like to do stuff that makes other people feel good,” she says. “I like to see my actions affect other people in a good way.”

A member of Fairview Baptist Church, Whittington volunteers with the New Hope Beta Club, the Fairview InTouch Group, at Vacation Bible School, with World Changers, at Trinity Nursing Home, for Backyard Bible clubs, with Operation Christmas Child, the Columbus-Lowndes County Humane Society, the New Hope Parent-Teacher Organization, Columbus Pilgrimage, Relay for Life and with New Hope Special Field Olympics for special-needs children.

Additionally, she participates in various canned-food drives, serves as a New Hope High School Baseball Diamond Girl and reads to children at New Hope Elementary School.

“Through people I know usually,” she explains, describing how she learns of various volunteer opportunities. “They ask for help or say something about needing volunteers.”

Asked how she maintains a balance between school, work and community service, Whittington laughs.

“It’s hard,” she admits. The challenge is telling some people ‘no,’ because you’re already doing something else. But (the reward is) the accomplishment of getting stuff done for other people and meeting new people. I try to volunteer a lot with community stuff and usually it’s then school, church or work (activities).”

Crediting her family with instilling the spirit of service in her, Whittington is trying to determine what career she will pursue and is leaning toward either psychology or social work.

“I want a career other people benefit from, a social service of some sort,” she explains.And her advice to up-and-coming volunteers?“Start small and don’t bite off more than you can chew, but finish whatever you started,

because it’s really rewarding,” she says. “Be constant. Keep on doing it. Don’t start and then stop.“Even doing something small benefits the community in a bigger way than people realize,” she

adds. “I don’t think people realize how much of an impact it makes, but it does.” By kristin Mamrack | [email protected]

For Heritage Academy senior alex Kloor, helping others is more than a requirement for school, it’s

a part of her everyday life. Kloor, 17, who lives in Amory, has spent the past three years volunteering at Gilmore Memorial Medical Center and helping with the Monroe County Excel By Five initiative while maintaining a 3.3 grade point average.

“I haven’t been doing this just to get the school credits, I just always wanted to help people,” Kloor says. “Someone once told me I was their ‘guardian angel’ at Gilmore and I was glad I had made an impact on their lives. I also help at the animal shelter and I help my teachers with special projects. I started doing more at school because I had a lot of time on my hands waiting for my brothers and sisters to finish with sports and other school activities.”

Kloor, the youngest of six children, is a member of the Heritage Dance Team and the MCA Social Club. She says time management is one of the keys to her success.

“I don’t get a lot of sleep,” Kloor says. “I tend to load myself up with a lot of activities and projects, but somehow it all manages to work out.”

With the volunteer program eliminated at GMMC, Kloor said she will be slowing down a bit in the upcoming school year. “I’m going to be doing some volunteer work with my social club because I want to do some things as part of a group. I will attend LSU next year and I plan to major in business. I also am going to try out to be a Tigerette, but I still plan to find time to do volunteer work when I’m in Baton Rouge.”

For Columbus High School senior raven Moore,

lending a helping hand begins at her own doorstep. The International Baccalaureate student begins most summer mornings making the short drive to her grandmother’s house. There, she cooks and helps with household chores and takes her 80-year-old grandparent to doctors’ appointments.

It’s small enough return for what Moore feels she’s received.

“I think I got a caring nature from my mother, and she got it from my grandmother,” says the 17-year-old daughter of Johnny and Annette Moore.

Her willingness to give doesn’t begin and end with family. Moore is active through school and church as well.

As a member of the Community Service Club and Beta Club at Columbus High, she’s volunteered for everything from collecting money for breast cancer research to assisting with Relay for Life.

One project in particular made an impact on her.“Helping Miss Kathy (Cadden) at Operation Ukraine, packing rice at the warehouse so it could

be sent out to people who don’t have enough to eat, really got me interested,” she explains.At Military Chapel United Methodist Church, where Moore sings in the choir and plays the

piano, she’s packed Christmas baskets for senior citizens and assisted with Vacation Bible School. She is also a Diamond Girl for the CHS baseball team and volunteers at a day care facility. All

while maintaining a grade point average above 4.0 that puts her at the top of her class.With her senior year about to begin, Moore is focused on goals of making “at least a 30 on the

ACT” and eventually becoming a software engineer, biochemical engineer or orthodontist. But she also looks forward to more volunteer opportunities.

“I do it to help the community, to make it better,” says the honor student.Columbus High School Senior Counselor Dorothy Roberson praised the increase she’s seen in

the number of students who, like Moore, are willing to give back.“And there’s a difference in the kids that do and the ones that don’t. The ones that do are not

stuck in that me-syndrome; they realize there are other people in the world that need help.”Getting started is simple, Moore says. “You could begin in your church, or ask your teacher about tutoring other students. Or, you

can volunteer at a nursing home or day care,” she recommends. “If you just keep up with the news, you’ll see opportunities. There’s always something to do.”

It all begins with reading. If a child struggles with reading, typically he or she has trouble in other subject areas as well,

falling further behind with each passing year. Without intervention, many of those children eventually become so frustrated they drop out of school — a scenario local educators see far too often.

Sandra DePriest knew there was a need in the community for after-school tutoring, and she knew it would be a good outreach ministry for Church of the Good Shepherd, where she serves as vicar. But when the church began offering the HEARTS (Helping Every Age Reach and Teach Students) After School Tutoring program a decade ago, she was surprised to see how quickly their slots filled.

Within two years, the church’s flagship ministry had become a 501c3 nonprofit, and now the program’s volunteers provide one-on-one tutoring for 30-40 elementary school students each year.

“That’s as many as we can handle at a time,” DePriest says. “We could have a HEARTS on every corner in Columbus. The need is that great.”

Students primarily come to the center through referrals from their schools, but parents sometimes approach them as well, DePriest said. Sessions are held twice a week, Monday through Thursday.

A summer reading program recently concluded, with 24 students signing up to strengthen reading skills, compete for prizes and, hopefully, discover a love for the written word.

Children have so many things competing for their interest, from sports to video games, she says, but if a child doesn’t read well, it will be difficult to understand homework assignments in other subjects.

The volunteers and church members

benefit as much as the students, taking the ministry way beyond its original purpose.

“It’s the opportunity to develop a nurturing relationship with a child and make a difference in the life of that child,” DePriest explains. “If we can intervene now with the students at risk of falling behind academically, we can prevent them from becoming dropouts, but we have to catch them early, before they’re so far behind they can’t catch up.”

VISION QuESTThe employees at Snider Vision Therapy

Centers take a different approach, but their end goal is the same — helping children reach their full potential.

It’s personal for vision therapist Angie Huskison. She watched her brother, Brandt Hammack, struggle through school. She knew he was bright and committed — he spent eight years working to get his degree from Belhaven University to fulfill his dream of becoming a pastor.

He was 38 before anyone realized that though he had 20/20 vision, his eyes didn’t work in conjunction with one another, slowing him down and affecting his reading comprehension. As a child, he had double vision. He was diagnosed with attention deficit disorder, but the underlying vision issue was missed.

When Huskison saw how her brother’s life

was changed, she decided to become a vision therapist.

Snider Vision Therapy Center opened in Columbus in 2005, and since that time, Huskison has seen many children — and adults — who have benefitted. Often, people have coped their entire lives with words that seem to jump, swim or move around on the page, but they never speak out, so their problems go undetected.

The first sign to parents is often a bad report card or a child who struggles three and four hours with homework they should be able to complete in less than an hour. At first, they may think the child is lazy or simply not trying. But a $29 screening at the center can reveal a child or adult fighting to surmount easily correctable vision and hearing problems.

“We can’t make them enjoy reading, and we can’t make them study, but we often find once they’re given the tools, once their visual system is working appropriately, at least it’s easier for them,” Huskison says. “I just hate to see kids struggle and get in trouble and have their grades not be where they should be, when it’s something that can be corrected.”

GOOD wORkSAs students with disabilities reach their

junior and senior years, a new challenge arises — making the transition from the classroom to the workforce.

That’s where the staff of AbilityWorks steps in, offering vocational evaluations and job readiness training to people with disabilities who are ages 16 or older.

The agency, a division of the Mississippi Department of Rehabilitation Services, works with school districts in Lowndes, Clay and Noxubee counties, as well as with the Mississippi Department of Education, to provide on and off campus services for students.

At the end of the student’s junior year, an AbilityWorks vocational rehabilitation counselor visits the school and explains available programs and services. At the beginning of the senior year, the student is assigned a transition counselor and is referred to AbilityWorks for evaluation, during which time they explore vocational opportunities and goals.

Those who are eligible for the program are taught job skills and job readiness training, then given the opportunity to work for local companies at the AbilityWorks workshop or, once they are over 18, on the job site. The majority of the work is assembly and packaging, and workers are paid for each piece they produce, AbilityWorks Facility Manager Stan Wheeler says. Once a month, their performance is evaluated.

The agency, which was founded in Columbus in 1967, serves an average of 30 clients per day. Last year, they served 217 — 87 of whom were placed into jobs. Of those 87, 78 are now considered closed cases, because they’ve remained on the job for 90 days and are doing well.

While AbilityWorks initially pays the workers’ salaries and benefits, with no cost to the employer, many go on to be hired full-time, says Robin Franks, an Ability Works counselor.

“It’s awesome,” she says. “I taught school for several years and chose to do this because I still got to work with the students I taught and help them get over that bump. I saw that need so badly when they were about to graduate. Most of my kids want to work. That’s why they’re in this program.”
