　　Nancy wanted to make good use of her spare time. So she decided to work for the underdog. For the past several years, she has been putting her experience and energy to help a disadvantaged (条件差的) high school student.

　　Nancy knew that her knowledge would be best shared in a one-to-one situation. She found her perfect match in Operation Jump Start(OJS).

　　Since its start, OJS has helped 80 students graduate from high school, with 95 percent moving on to higher education.
