"I am often asked what motivates me to be in this line of work.
We see kids every day inthe most desperate circumstances.
Is it sad? Yes. Is it depressing? Sure. What keeps me coming back
day after day is simple: I can't imagine what life
would be like for these kids without School on Wheels.
Now that is depressing."
