NGOS/Charities When it comes to NGOS, charities and organizations everything appears really black and white. I feel that media really portrays it as that way. So I decided to put it in color and bring out some facts by providing certain certain incidents that take place in these groups. I feel that it is very important to do research before donating. In your mind you may think this money is going to individuals in need but in reality these groups may be using it for their own benefit. It is…

For the past 6 months we were working on setting up a date with the Children Recovery Center. We were thinking as a class to go to the Children Recovery Center around Christmas time and play with the kids. We both agreed on December 2nd to come in. In class we were planning stuff out to make December 2nd as smooth as possible for the kids. We set a goal for ourselves to make $1,200 to donate to the Children Recovery Center. We planned out fundraisers and did a book drive. We made Christmas cards…

According to the National Center for Charitable Statistics, there are more than 1.5 million registered nonprofit organizations in the United States. These charities rely on the time, talent, and financial support of volunteers to achieve their goals. For many volunteers, the satisfaction of helping others is often enough reward for their efforts. However, for many people, an incentive is a major motivation to become involved within or donate to the charity or charitable event. Is this…

Service is important to me because it allows for growth in a person’s selflessness like no other action can. In this country, it is extremely easy for a person to turn a blind I to suffering and need, which is unacceptable. A few years ago I adopted the mentality that my actions and achievements are not for myself but for the betterment of the community around me. With that being said, it’s important to me to give back and assist the community in as many ways at possible. Service creates the…

Rick Warren once said “Time is your most precious gift because you only have a set amount of it.” Time is one of the only things you can’t get back. When you give someone your time you give them part of your life. That is the reason why volunteering is such a selfless thing to do. Volunteering a lot is extremely important for a community. That’s why Tim Egemo is a true hero and one of the most important people in our community. One time Tim volunteered to help the community was when he made his…

Roselvia Escobar, mother of 22-year-old Cesar, begged for blood for her son’s transfusions. Cesar, diagnosed with a disease called thalassemia, needs this blood for his three monthly transfusions. “He’s in bed, drowsy, inactive, and terrified,” Escobar, said “ The right to live doesn’t exist in Venezuela. You just pray to God your loved one doesn’t die.” (Krygier 2). Many families in Venezuela are struggling to find medical supplies, food, and water since the beginning of the Venezuelan crisis.…

Community service is not as bad as some people make it out to be. I myself had an internal groan when I heard that community service was required and would be set as a grade. I had only known volunteerism as doing a dull boring task with no discernible reward. But after experiencing it for myself I found it quite the contrary. Volunteering is a way to meet new people and witness a group working toward a greater cause. Looking to the future I hope to volunteer at the local library and Humane…

During the holidays they say it's better to give than to receive. I believe that to be true, It's good to be blessed, but its better to be a blessing. with this in mind , I believe the best gift to give isn't necessarily around any holiday, its one our own selves can give after death, the gift of life. It's called The Uniform Anatomical Gift Act. The Uniform Anatomical Gift Act established in 1968 and is available in one form or another in all 50 states. “In the United States, the Uniform…
