Other young volunteers go and work in the homes of people who are sick or old. They paint, clean up, or repair houses, do their shopping and mow their lawns. For boys who no longer have fathers there is a(n) 4called Big Brothers. College students and other 5take these boys to baseball games or on fishing trips and 6them to get to know things that boys usually learn from their fathers.
Each city has a number of clubs where boys and girls can go to play games or learn crafts. Some of these clubs show movies or organize short trips to the mountains, the beaches, the museums or other 7of interest. Most of these clubs use a lot of high school and college students as 8because they are 9enough to remember the problems of younger boys and girls.
