Beings that I quit working to fulfill my dreams, we are usually fairly broke, but I believe very much in giving whatever you can.

I can give time. So I went through some intense training and have become a GAL, Guardian Ad Litem. I investigate the happenings in the lives of children who have been taken from their families by the court system. I make reports and represent what is believed to be in the best interest of the children in all court/ official proceedings. I become that child's/children (usually siblings) personal advocate. It is extremely challenging and scary too sometimes but without a doubt I know I made someone's life better and that is what I am here for.

ANYONE can become a GAL!!!! Look in the phone book! Make a difference!
