Volunteer Spotlight: Emma literacy tutor

June 13, 2019

#generation G in Action!
Emma
Tutoring Since 2017
Personal Interests: Tennis, Special Olympics, Best Buddies and GiGi’s of course!
Why I tutor: I tutor at GiGi’s because I love the environment and being able to help children with Down syndrome. I’ve been involved with the special education community since 8th grade, and it has given me so much joy and happiness, and GiGi’s is just one way I choose to spread joy to others!
