Dear Serina,

Lisa and I are in the same class and she sits next to me. She is an excellent student and I can learn a lot from her. However, she talks so much that sometimes I can’t pay attention to my studies. I want to change seats with another girl, but I’m afraid it will hurt Lisa’s feelings. What should I do?

Yours,

Winnie

Dear Winnie,

In 1990, Debbie Spaide and a group of children volunteered to water the garden for an elderly neighbour (鄰居) in New Canaan, CT. A few weeks later, the same kids made 150 bag lunches for a soup kitchen (a place where people with no money and no homes can get free food). Debbie Spaide told her friends about her experiences. After just a few weeks, the group grew to over 50 young people. That was the beginning of GenerationOn Kids Care Clubs.

GenerationOn Kids Care Clubs are groups of young people who work together to help people in need in their communities and around the world. GenerationOn Kids Care Clubs can be found in schools, churches, volunteer centres and many other centres. Today there are more than 1,800 registered (已注冊(cè)的) GenerationOn Kids Care Clubs in the world and 80,000 kids in the United States and countries including Australia, Canada and China.

Anywhere that there are kids working together to help others, there is a GenerationOn Kids Care Club in the making. If you are interested in starting a GenerationOn Kids Care Club, go to www.kidscare.org.

Sally Ride grew up in California. She liked to play tennis, and she loved learning about outer space. When Sally Ride finished college, she read in the newspaper that the United States Space program was looking for astronauts. This was the first time the program wanted women to be astronauts.
