For my sixty hours of volunteer work I decided to volunteer at a Child Life Center which was in a poverty stricken area in Norfolk, Va. At the child life center my job as a volunteer was to assist the children with their homework, help the staff monitor the children on local field trips, as well as serve as a positive role model for the children. The experience I had at Park Place Child Life Center was one I will honestly never forget. Although I didn’t get any actual counseling experience, I was able to learn the ways that the non-profit organization received their funding, I was able to gain experience in working with the youth, and I was also able to make a positive impact on the lives of children who were considered “at-risk youth”. To go there every day and be able to see the change the children had in their behaviors and how much just some attention and affection from adults impacted their behaviors was honestly amazing.…
As I was searching for internships all over the country I was looking for a department that mission statements and values match up with what I have for myself. "Our mission is the reduction of the incidence of crime and the improvement of the quality of life in Arlington County by making it a place where all people can live safely and without fear." As I read over it more and more I realized your mission statement is different from many other departments. First being that your goals are realistic and very achievable, many departments goals are unrealistic like"end crime in this city". That would be great of course but not realistic.…

In addition to that club, I have volunteered at two pet shelters through The Benjamin Animal Rescue Club. The first one, Furry Friends, was significant because I was able to gather and purchase goods and necessary items that a pet shelter needs on a daily basis. The second shelter I volunteered with, A Second Chance Rescue, had an animal adoption day at a local pet store. I was able to demonstrate Service by supporting the adoption of the dogs that currently had no…
National Junior Honor Society would be a great way to express myself and my abilities.

Being in the National Honors Society is one of the highest honors that can be earned by a high school student. It opens up opportunities for scholarships, looks great on college applications, and shows that I’m on the right path for my future.

Now that the moment I’ve been dreaming about is here, for once, I’m actually happy to say there was something my moms were right about.…

Volunteering at the homeless shelter is one of my favorite things to do. A few weeks ago, on a serene Saturday morning, my family and I volunteered at Loaves and Fishes. It was special to see just the sheer amount of people who had come out to volunteer on that Saturday. If you think about, they could’ve been doing anything on that Saturday morning. Yet, they decided to help give back to their community.…

I have always been very involved in helping individuals within my community. I feel as though performing community service as a child and young adult has shaped me into the person I am today.…
