WFU Law students making a difference at rec center SPECIAL TO THE CHRONICLE Allison Levene has found a unique way to relieve pressure while studying at Wake Forest Law. "Volunteering with kids is a great way to cope with law school stress," says Levene, who has been managing the after-school tutoring and basketball program for children at Hanes Hosiery Community Center in Winston-Salem for two years. She began volun teering at the center her first year of law school with the Youth Advocacy Group student organiza tion, for which she is now president. Having volunteered in high school with Big Brothers, Big Sisters in her native Connecticut, Levene, who will gradu ated from the Law School this year, says, "Kids come naturally to me," said Each semester there are up to five law stu dents volunteering as tutors Monday through Thursday in any subject for children ranging in age from elementary to high school. Law stu dents also act as basket ball coaches. The build ing and its facilities were originally donated by Hanes Hosiery, but the center is funded by city and private dona tions. Levene says one of the biggest needs for these kids is help study ing for tests, especially for the annual End of Grade tests (EOGs). How successful is the tutoring? "One young girl started the school year making all C's on her report card, then earned all A's and B's after regu lar tutoring," she said. "The girl came in and thanked all of the tutors when she got the news. And a mom drives from Kernersville to Winston Salem just for the tutor ing quality at Hanes com pared to what is offered in her area, primarily to help her child with EOG testing." The other focus of the program is basketball. "It is fun, athletic, and teaches lessons in team work and sportsman ship," Levene said. Center Supervisor and Coach Art Blevins and employees John Torian and Patrice Johnson work with the kids' games. In many cases, the $25 fee for basketball per season per child is covered out of-pocket by the coaches. "Kids from all over the community come for basketball," Levene says. "No one is going to be turned away because they can't pay." Blevins added. "Our basketball program is designed for our kids to learn the game, learn the fundamentals and to have fun playing." Levene says a lot of the kids at the center want to be police officers and teach ers, and are looking for encouragement and role models. "How could I go to college?" they ask the law student tutors. Their tutors reply, "You can do it! Keep coming here, do your homework, do well on tests, and stay out of trouble." Levene won a Community Service Award in October 2013 for the work she does with the center and with the children. She was The youngsters take part in b-ball action. nominated by Blevins. Two of the students from the Cente.r won an Anti Drug art contest as well, and photos from the awards night and the awards adorn the walls of the tutoring rooms at the community center. Levene says her future plans definitely include continuing to vol unteer in ways that help children. "1 hope to help my mother, who is launching a nonprofit in Connecticut to help chil dren of families below the poverty line get dona tions for school sup plies." she said. Blevins has nothing but praise for the Wake Forest Law volunteers and their efforts. "Allison Levene is great, she has helped me for three years now and 1 will miss her." he said. "She and all of the Wake Forest Law students are a blessing to me and my kids here at the center...We are blessed to have WFU Law students here and appreciate all they do!" CALL NOW to Find Out How ?
