Hands on Atlanta Technology Day, Samaritan House, Saturday, March 10, 2007 www.handsonatlanta.org

"Volunteering at the Samaritan House was very rewarding and Arthur Farbizio did a great job leading the team.  I just wanted to share what a rewarding experience it was for me. We taught a total of 12 homeless men basic computer skills, intro to Word, and how to navigate the internet for job searching.  The men I worked with learned basic computer skills, created an email, set up a job search engine so they would receive a list everyday in their email, went over basic word, resume templates, and the "help" menu so they can spend time teaching themselves further. Two of the men sent emails to each other with an attachment of a resume template.  When one of them opened his email and saw a message he was just like a little kid.  Afterwards he just kept shaking my hand saying, 'Thank you, Miss Jennifer.'  I have his email address so am going to email him and see how he's doing.  I'll see you at the next networking event". --Jennifer Jacobs
