Giving Back To A Community

Decent Essays
The value that is most important to me is service. I strongly believe that giving back to your community is essential. Not only is it essential for you as a person but it will also inspire other people to do service just like you.

However, you know that you helped your community and that you participated in the process of making it a bit more beautiful. Eventually you will be recognized for your help and it will pay off. I would contribute to developing a community focused on the value of service because I know where the value can take a person. It can help a person grow out of their comfort zone in many ways.

    Not only is the participant regarded in higher esteem, the participant gets to take part in a satisfying experience that helps others in their community. Many people believe that there is nothing they can do to help in their communities, but that is simply not the case. There are opportunities in every community; you just have to dig deeper and look for them. I think the best part about community service is that you get to see your few minutes, hours, or days make a change for the better. In the past years I have participated in a variety of service activities that I have thoroughly enjoyed.…

There were some values that I thought were mandatory but did not make the cut while there were other values that I never thought would be so important to me.
