Friday, some 300 Battle Creek area youth volunteered for the United Way's Youth Day of Caring.
"Brittany Cole, a senior at South Hill Academy, had never helped with a car wash but has volunteered at the Battle Creek animal shelter for two and a half years." Brittany was one of several teens working side by side with clients of the Haven, a "a place where the homeless can go to get their lives back on track."
Seems to me with teens like Brittany, we old folks can stop worrying about the future. "It's really fun. I enjoy it," said Brittany.
