natural state are peaceful, and that society made people aggressive and hostile. The other scientist Hobbes thinks that before society Man was hostile and not honest, but because of society Man has become peaceful and cooperative.

Giving back has always been apart of my life. It will be an honor and a dream to have an opportunity to volunteer in the Peace Corps program before I further embark into the health care field. The techniques and experience that I will acquire from the program will allow me to further develop my critical thinking skills, team building skills and knowledge based skills about my discipline. This opportunity will abundantly shape me into the health care provider I keen to be for my community. Also,…

NHS Essay National Honors Society recognizes outstanding high school students who have portrayed excellence in areas of leadership, service, character, and scholarship. I have exemplified in all these areas. Initially, I volunteered at Asian American Civic Association for my whole sophomore year and completed about 50 hours of community service.

For my Service Learning Project I volunteer at ACTS (Area Christians Together in Service). During the different times I volunteered I was flushed with many different emotions. The ACTS people asked me to work the front check in desk each time I volunteered. There I would hand out clipboards and applications to each person that walked in the door. Once a person was finished filling out the application they would bring it back up to me, and I would make a copy of their license, social security…

I currently participate in various service programs that benefit my community. What I truly enjoy is identifying a position that I can fill, and catering to the needs of my community by using the skills I have to help others. Knowing that I have made a difference to someone gives me a great sense of satisfaction, and provides me with a foundation to step into other roles that allow me to serve. Serving as an officer in the Coast Guard would allow me the opportunity to continue my love of service…

Growing up in a small town of Washington state, I never felt a sense of necessity; however, this sense did not root from my family’s resources, but rather the way in which others in my community generously and genuinely served me. From having dedicated high school youth group leaders, to being taught by inspirational and intentional teachers, I always sensed that I was being granted great care and opportunity. As I grew older, the service which I was provided undoubtedly formed a desire in my…

In the past few years, I’ve volunteered with a variety of organizations from National Honor Society, National Spanish Honor Society, and Key Club. I have also co-founded a Community Outreach Club at high school. Through the Church I’ve assisted with Vacation Bible School and middle school retreats.

Choosing to participate in this program was not a difficult decision, since I knew I wanted…

While volunteering through the Catholic Charities group, I got to experience both the Sanitation handout room at the Dorothy Day center as well as work in the prep kitchen at the faculty warehouse. While volunteering in the Day center we were placed in a back room that had two service counters on opposite sides of the room. Those counters opened into the bunk rooms of the center and were organized by gender, sorting the women onto one side and all the men on the other. Between the bunk rooms our…

People volunteer for many different reasons; it could be because they are required to volunteer, to gain new experiences, or to explore career options. I volunteer because I love making connections with other people, and helping others. Volunteering gives me a sense of accomplishment and allows me to know that I have done well for others. This past summer I had the privilege of volunteering at the Virginia Association of Family and Consumer Sciences annual conference, as well as Brookdale…
