3 bits of advice from me to you:
1) No is not an option. Think of a creative way to turn it into a yes. People usually want to agree with things but if they do not feel comfortable with the situation they usually will decline. Try and make it comfortable.
2) There will always be obstacles. Though you may receive 100,000 “No’s,” remember it only takes a couple of “Yes’s” for something to happen. Never give up!
3) If you want to do something… DO IT! Refer to #1 and #2 for any questions.
It has been a pleasure and honor serving alongside all of you. I will be continuing my service to the community through Volunteers in Public Schools in Baton Rouge. This is a decision that I had to make for myself. City Year Louisiana is a work in progress and you all do AMAZING work. Keep it up and we will make Louisiana a better place for our kids. If you would like to keep in touch: angelaplau@gmail.com. See you at graduation.
Yours in service,
Angela Lau
