Bob Borf Motivation

The basis of our project was to raise funds and awareness for the HSOV. We wanted to reach out to as many people as we could so we can spread the issue of the shelters.

Since being involved in a dog rescue organization, I’ve learned a lot about how an animal control shelter works. They are not just people who will take your dog if they get out of the yard. They are animal lovers who try their best to educate the community pet population control and help homeless pets find a new home. I sat down with a friend of mine who I met through the animal rescue group with both volunteer with to find out more about a day in the life of a shelter worker.

One thing that stood out to Adrian is not so much some of the stories but as a numbers guy seeing the monthly reports on how many people have been helped or benefited from the shelter. The numbers are staggering you know the need is there another report is they track volunteer’s hours. It shows there is a need and people are interested in helping in their community. He was surprised by these numbers. What is most inspiring to Adrian is the volume of people who want to help this cause.

The preceding words originate from a song that secular recording artist Bobby Brown performed depicting an entitlement to living life however one wanted. However, regrettably Brown’s personal philosophy on life is devoid of the dire eminent consequences associated with this philosophy, and it ultimately led to destruction and ruin in his family and career. On the other hand, unlike Brown, according to Isaac Newton’s third law, “every action whether good or bad leads to a reaction,” which I believe is applicable to hold all of us accountable in how we decide to live our everyday lives. I concur, choose, and practice Newton’s third law and have adopted it as my philosophy in my daily life rather than Brown’s.

I had a chance to observe the overnight emergency shelter staff and supervisor, Angelic Williams, for 3 nights, while volunteering at the Dorothy Day Center (DDC) in down town St. Paul, MN. During the day the facility is used for mental health, housing, and veteran services. They also offer meals, laundry and showers during the day. At night it becomes an emergency shelter giving 250 homeless men and women a warm meal and a warm, safe place to sleep from 8 pm to 6:30 am.

After Bob Quinn's initial press conference back in January we were able to learn that he is a no nonsense kind of guy and he will not simply tell the fans and media what they want to hear by promising winning seasons and championships.

The foundation office also served as a place for Lost Boys to relax and discuss issues affecting them. We raised $35,000 in the first year. ”(God Grew Tired Of Us pg

Barbie Harris is a 50 year old female who came into our shelter this morning looking for assistance. In our initial intake and interview this writer can see that all Barbie has with her some belongs: some clothing, blankets, hygiene products, and her prescriptions, which all fit into a suitcase and backpack.

In the late 1980s at the age of 58 Elliot Liebow was diagnosed with cancer and told he did not have much time to live. Receiving this news he retired his job as an anthropologist and decided to spend his time volunteering. At first he began in a local soup kitchen but then began volunteering at four emergency homeless shelters during the winters that served single women in a small city outside Washington D.C. During his time at the shelters, Dr. Liebow grew of great interest in the matter and decided to use a participant observation technique to gather all information he witnessed and write a book to illustrate how shelters really feel from the inside. His mission was to get everyday interaction and data in attempt to understand and perceive

Another motivation technique he used was inspiration. He saw the goal that he wanted to achieve and he went out and got it. He did not pick the most talented players, but he picked the ones he knew would come together and do great things. A good example of this is with the goalie. He picked a backup goalie and believed in him. This goalie became great and was a major part of the successes the team had. Herb continued to tell his team that they had so much potential and it did not matter if the Soviets were better and had more experience. He was able to inspire the team to buy in to his methods and achieve greatness. At first I did not understand why Herb did not pick the best of the best, but now I realize that he did not do this because the team would not have meshed very well. He knew the strength of these players and believed in them. As a
