Our Reviewers

Our junior team members have been keeping busy. Aside from the Bentley projects
they've been working on, they have been creating their own events and projects in
their respective schools and communities. They're spreading kindness, helping to
keep parks and playgrounds clean, caring for others, and expressing gratitude and
appreciation.

Jasmine, now six years old asked her classmates to bring a can of cat food instead of a
birthday gift for her. Together with her friends, she collected 175 cans of cat and dog food
that she took to her local animal shelter.

Emily who is six years old went through her giant toy box and pulled out toys she was no
longer playing with and donated them. For every new gift she receives, she makes sure to
donate one. She has even inspired her parents and friends to also declutter.

Suzie is also six years old. Suzie and her older sister, with the help of their mom, bake
batches of cookies on the last Friday of each month. These cookies are gifted to the bus
driver, thanking him for taking her to school on time, to the security guard for keeping
everyone safe; to the lunchroom staff and other support staff in the school. But she never
forgets her teacher and classmates.

Anthony is now 7 years old. After school, he and his friends have about 30 minutes before
their bus arrives. They spend their time picking up trash thrown on the sidewalks and are
careful to put recyclables in their proper bins. He claims that if people don't like a messy
room, why should we have a messy planet?

Daniel is also 7 years old. He is an active member of his community. From volunteering at
the local library to opening doors for seniors, he can't sit still and has very little interest in
video games. He says that when he sees people happy, it makes him happy.

Christopher is nine years old now. He is a junior assistant coach and boasts about his
position even if his responsibility is to ensure the locker room is clean and all balls, bats, and
rackets are put away. He is writing a story about courage that I am looking forward to
reading.

What's next? The kids will be helping with some upcoming events and projects that Bentley
will be hosting and sponsoring.
