Decent Essays

It reveled in the post that her husband was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), which happened to be what Phi Delta Theta was raising money for. The previous co-worker called me after her inspiring post on Facebook encouraging people on social media to attend and enlightening people on what ALS is and how it has impacted her family, sobbing

    The most meaningful volunteer experience I have had is the Calf Fry Fundraiser at St. William Catholic Church in Durant, OK. This event was meaningful for a number of reasons.
