為年輕女孩爭取更光明的未來
Children are impressionable, and in a world bombarded by cyberbullying and images on the internet, young girls need strong, compassionate women as role models.
兒童是易受影響的,在一個(gè)網(wǎng)絡(luò)欺凌和互聯(lián)網(wǎng)圖像轟炸的世界中,年輕女孩需要堅(jiān)強(qiáng)、富有同情心的婦女作為榜樣。
Angela Vitellaro, special project coordinator at Aflac in Parsippany, New Jersey, has been volunteering with the youth development program Girls on the Run for the past three years. She said being a mentor for the youth has been as rewarding for her as it is good for the girls she coaches.
安吉拉·維特拉羅是位于新澤西州帕西帕尼的Aflac特別項(xiàng)目協(xié)調(diào)員,在過去的三年里,她一直在“奔跑中的女孩”這個(gè)青年發(fā)展項(xiàng)目中做志愿者。她說,當(dāng)一名青年導(dǎo)師對她來說是一種回報(bào),對她所輔導(dǎo)的女孩來說也是一件好事。
“The ability to help them to overcome those issues is an incredible feeling,” she said. “We want them to value themselves and go out there into the world strongly.”
“能夠幫助她們克服這些問題是一種難以置信的感覺。”她說。“我們希望她們重視自己,堅(jiān)強(qiáng)地走向世界。”
In addition to physical education and development, every season her team participates in a community impact project, so the girls can work together to make a difference in their local community.
除了體育和發(fā)展,每個(gè)季節(jié)她的團(tuán)隊(duì)都會參加一個(gè)社區(qū)影響項(xiàng)目,這樣女孩們就可以一起努力,為當(dāng)?shù)厣鐓^(qū)做出貢獻(xiàn)。
