Blood Drive Reflection

Decent Essays
Show More
Over the years, I have volunteered my time to many service projects in our community. One of the projects has been being the American Red Cross Blood Drive coordinator for our Student Council June 2015 and January 2016 blood drives. This required me to schedule people to work at the blood drive and to call people asking if they are willing to donate. Another one is a service project for National Honor Society. Twice a year we pick up trash along a specified section of highway. This allows our organization to help out the community and our environment. After practice, we split up among our section and walk the little distance and pick up trash and liter. I enjoy giving time to my community because I like to put others before

    Personal Narrative: Grayling Generating Station Limited Partnership Scholarship

    I have donated time in my city, state, country and internationally. Through the many opportunities that I have had for community service, I have been able to broaden my views, and look outside my community at how others experience our world. I have visited very diverse communities ranging from the inner city of Detroit, MI to a small, economically depressed village in Honduras, to the mountains of Pennsylvania and inside homes very different from mine in my own…

    Personal Narrative: National Spanish Honor Society

    In the past few years, I’ve volunteered with a variety of organizations from National Honor Society, National Spanish Honor Society, and Key Club.

One of my favorite memories came from volunteering for the first time with National Spanish Honor Society. Choosing to participate in this program was not a difficult decision, since I knew I wanted to continue practicing my Spanish and volunteer in the community at the same time.…

    I was able to volunteer at a local bank that was sponsoring the Lake Park Elementary School for the holiday season. The school has over 300 underprivileged students between the ages of kindergarten and fifth grade. Most of the students at that school only have one meal per day. Along with other volunteers, I packaged bags that contained candy, toys, toiletries, a blanket, and a pair of athletic shoes. The bags were able to provide the children with goods that we often take for granted.…

    Honor In National Honor Society

    In order to raise money for prom this year, I accompanied the class of 2019, for 5.5 hours, to a west point game and worked in concessions. I had a great experience working with my peers to achieve a goal that would benefit the senior class. Recently I have engaged in service with my church, for 4 hours, helping to move furniture while they were switching locations. From this experience I learned that sacrificing my time for a communal effort may seem minuscule, but ultimately helps increase efficiency. Also I volunteered at the annual Easter egg hunt at memorial park last weekend for 3.5 hours.…
