Another Kids Hope
Story
Sybil
was a second grader when she was matched with Miss
Twila, her KIDS HOPE USA mentor.
Over weight
with no self-esteem, she was painfully shy.
Sybil had no friends.
It was
impossible for her to look into Miss Twila's face.
Instead, she
looked down and her long brown hair completely covered
her face.
Time after
time the mentor encouraged Sybil to look at her when she
spoke.
And Sybil
would try, but her eyes would quickly turn away.
Three years later, Sybil is a changed child.
She is no
longer shy, she looks at Miss Twila when she speaks, and
she has friends.
She has
learned to love and value herself.
For three
years, Sybil heard Miss Twila tell her that she can be
anything she wants to be.
She decided
that she wants to be a veterinarian.
