The University of Oklahoma is a very diverse community. For their second year, consecutively, they have won the Insight into Diversity award. This makes me work harder each and everyday to better my community and soon help many other communities as well. As of now I help my community by participating in numerous volunteer roles such as Clothe a Child, Camp Inventions and PALS.
I love helping, not only my community, but other communities, the best way I can. When I saw Kohl's clothing store’s volunteer support list, I signed up to the foundation of Clothe a Child right away.

At school I am a part of a program called PALS. PALS is a class where an individual volunteer at different schools with children and assist at Special Olympics. In PALS, you must have good patients, leadership skills and commitment. When I went to McClure Elementary School, I was given a child in which I helped them throughout the year and taught them how to be a leader in their own way. Taught them what a leader is and supposed to be, however, I allowed them to express the commendable leader they wanted to be. I taught them skills and they taught me certain skills too.
When I was in sixth grade, I too had a leader from PALS. My leader taught me how to become a successful leader and I wanted to share my experience with others. In the Special Olympics, the kids need aid because they cannot perform certain task as others. My patience was performed numerous times during these events because I had to be supportive of their needs. A child needed help putting on their glove and shoes after becoming upset that they cannot do it. I stepped in and helped them put on these items. I was thanked by the Special Olympics mentors on how patient I was to the kids.
I have done many things in my community and I will not stop because of the joy I bring upon
