Last year, I grew a strong bond with these two boys and seeing them enjoy their new school and be so grateful was amazing. The boys and their classmates were so happy to see us, the returners and expressed so much gratitude towards us. **I was so impressed with the growth of the** **school**. Leaving this year was hard but I was able to see that my buddies and their classmates were left with an amazing center to learn and grow as individuals and would take advantage of their education to the fullest. ## School the World Stories ### Hear from our World Changers about their service experience and read about the latest announcements at School the World! ### Subscribe Here! ### Recent Posts ### Categories - [Service trips (3)](https://blog.schooltheworld.org/tag/service-trips) - [World Changers (2)](https://blog.schooltheworld.org/tag/world-changers) - [Father (1)](https://blog.schooltheworld.org/tag/father) - [Panama (1)](https://blog.schooltheworld.org/tag/panama) - [family (1)](https://blog.schooltheworld.org/tag/family) ## Get Involved #### [![Pledge Your Birthday](https://blog.schooltheworld.org/hubfs/SchoolTheWorld_June2019%20Theme/Images/Gyd7H_tR-e1557366912353-1024x683.png) Instead of gifts, ask for donations & your birthday will change lives!
