Meet Amanda Jacobson!

Amanda– thank you! Our team, the girls you have made an impact on, and the Abercrombie/Colfax community sincerely thank you.
What is your favorite lesson or mantra?
“Kindness is Contagious!”
Why do you love volunteering for BIO Girls?
“I volunteer because as a teacher I see firsthand how relationships and self-esteem can impact a young girl's life. I mentor to help girls grow in their faith and relationship with God and each other. I mentor in hopes that I can be a positive role model and develop deeper relationships with the girls that I see every day in school and my community. I mentor so that my two sons can see the importance of healthy habits and relationships. I mentor to give girls an opportunity I wish i had when I was younger."
Do you have an impactful story to share from your volunteer experience?
“I love when participants can share stories of how they applied a skill/skills they learned during BIO Girls!”
