Examples Of Narrative Summary Sample

Through my participation in volunteer programs at the WakeMed hospital, Marbles Kid’s Museum, and Stop hunger now I have gained an understanding of the importance of community involvement and the difference it can make to help a fellow neighbor in need. In addition to volunteering in programs related to STEM and healthcare, I also have worked with Raleigh Parks and Rec for my Eagle Scout service project. This project allowed me to become more involved in my community and understand the steps which I can take to better it. As a HOSA state officer, I would make it a priority to engage with my fellow members and encourage and assist them to become more involved in their communities, so they can be the change they want to see. I want to use my experience through the numerous community programs I am a part of to inspire and HOSA members in the value of giving back and the reward one gets out of

“School made us ‘literate’ but did not teach us to read for pleasure.” -Ambeth R. Ocampo

While most of the schools in Upshur County have their own libraries, the public library allows for parents to check out books for themselves to enhance their own education. Also, this allows for students to choose from a larger range of read to self-books for the classroom. Along with Libraries providing resources for education, Upshur County has many facilities used for enhancing student learning opportunities. One of these facilities is Stockert Youth Center, Stockert also allows for tutoring in many subject areas at a low cost for the families. Students can receive assistant with reading and comprehension. Also providing educational opportunities is the Child Development Center, which allows for students to begin learning at a young age. The CDC allows for child development in emotional, social, and academic areas to start at a young age before starting public school. The CDC allows for students to begin reading at a young age. Lastly, West Virginia Wesleyan College provides a large amount of community support around the entire county. Wesleyan’s Service Scholars serve in many of the schools, day cares, and afterschool programs. The service scholars provide role models in the facilities and an extra hand for the teachers. The service scholars serve as help making copies, extra one on one attention, and read aloud

While the service trip took place in the Northern US, there were pre-determined requirements that had to be met before we could embark, one of which was a minimum fundraised amount of $500. The money that was raised by this program went towards scholarships for other Kentucky residents to attend YMCA Conferences, where they have the chance to learn about democracy, kinship, and our community. I count this as community service because the YMCA changed my life by transforming an academic student into a servant leader. Providing the chance for someone else to be shaped into one of tomorrow's leaders is doing a service to my community. The third tier of my service goes towards the United States of America. An example of my service to America has already been noted in my ten day service trip to northern states where I helped shelve books with my peers and kinfolk who had fallen into unfortunate circumstances as well as re-vitalise YMCA Camp Y-Owasco through mulching over 5 miles of trails; however, a lesser noted service that many young adults seek is education. I firmly believe that the education of forthcoming generations is one of the greatest services that can be done for our

Last May, I traveled with Alternative Breaks to New York for community service. During this service, I worked with Meals on Wheels who dedicate their time to provide food for the elderly of Manhattan. As I delivered the food to the seniors, I got a sense of fulfillment because I made them smile by providing them with food. Thus, I chose MDC’s Single Stop because I wanted to make a difference in my home campus by providing and assuring nourishment to those that do not have it just like I did in New York. As my first two years of college comes to an end, I wanted to leave a mark of my own here at home at Miami Dade College North Campus. During the month of September, I decided to partner up with a few of my peers to serve at MDC’s Single Stop.

By participating in this service project, I have learned that it is important to take part in activities that benefit

For this service learning assignment I devoted my time and energy to working with Brooklyn Cemetery, the Food Bank of Northeast Georgia, and Athens Technical College. I participated in MLK Day of Service, which was created with the intent to “celebrate and honor the birthday of the famed civil rights leader, Martin Luther King Jr” ("There's Still," n.d.). This day of service stood to serve many different aspects of the community and benefited a wide range of populations, mostly in the form of environmental cleanup. Much of my time was also spent volunteering with The Food Bank of Northeast Georgia, whose mission is to “work toward ending hunger as part of an overall community effort to alleviate poverty” (Growing Seeds, 2016, p. 2). Through

Kanawha County Teen Leaders: Over 4,000 hours of service to community since 2010. The service mainly falls into three categories: staffing educational kiosks at Health Fairs and Science Events; counseling and teaching at afterschool sites, day camps, overnight, and younger residential camp; and improving camp facilities during camp clean-up events. Recent survey regarding teen leader overnight event indicated that they were part of the decision-making, felt safe with other campers and staff, felt accepted by other and felt they could freely express their opinion. A survey sent to all who were county teen leaders during 2010-2015. The results indicate that they increased leadership and life skills and that elements of positive youth developments were evident within the program.

I have participated in the program Lunch Is Served, held at the First United Methodist Church in Sioux Falls. The goal of this program is to gather volunteers to pack lunches to aid the working poor, ultimately fixing the major hunger problem in Sioux Falls. I have attended this volunteer opportunity five times, and plan to volunteer again in the future. Essentially, those who participate pack as many brown paper bag lunches as possible in a streamlined fashion. Included in the bag is usually various nutritious snacks and a wrapped sandwich that will be given to those in need. My experiences there was very humbling, due to the fact that it made me realize the impact one person can have on the community. All it takes is a half hour of

Service Learning is learning through experience to gain sociological observation, concepts, and theories so I decide to do my service learning hours in one of the two high schools that is part of the Oceanside Unified School District. The name of the school is called El Camino High School. El Camino High School is a high school that is located at 400 Rancho Del Oro Drive in Oceanside, California. It has over 3,000 students currently attending. The school’s mascot is the “Wildcat” and their colors are gold and red. El Camino High School is a public school that is part of a system of free public education that is maintained at a public expense for the education of students who are part of that community or district. El Camino High School is a place is a public school where students are coming out of middle school and are

During my first year at UCLA, I had the opportunity to volunteer with the Black Pre-Health Organization on campus to put together an annual youth festival for children living in underserved communities within the greater LA area. Our goal during the festival was to promote healthy lifestyles by teaching the kids, through interactive workshops and activities, the importance of good nutrition and fitness. As a volunteer, I was able to interact with the kids and create a great bond with many of them while providing tips on how they could turn an unhealthy everyday snack into a wholesome, beneficial one. During the festival, we provided the youth with snacks, various health resources and free hygiene products so that they could begin their new

“Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, What are you doing for others?” This quote bounced around my mind while at my first service event through HOSA at the Biosciences and Medicine Academy at Francis Tuttle. It was dawn and the sun had not yet poked any rays, yet me and a group of fifteen students were already hard at work tying up signs and arranging fruit. This experience was memorable not only because of the enjoyment I had, but because it allowed me to gain a desire for engaging in volunteering opportunities and also realize that through HOSA, I can gain improved communication, teamwork, and leadership skills.

I acquired my service learning hours by participating in a group that volunteered at Tulsa County Youth Services. My group encountered many difficulties and challenges before finally securing a project at Tulsa County Youth Services that would allow for us to fulfill our eight-hour requirement for the service-learning project. Initially, we had planned to volunteer at Rogers County Youth Services, but these plans dissipated as we learned that it was extremely difficult to simply set up a meeting between our group and their organization’s director. Luckily, I came across group volunteer opportunities at Tulsa County Youth Services while contemplating how we would be able to fulfill our community service hours with the difficulties that were then experiencing with Rogers County Youth Services. Looking back, I think it was easier to set up a group project with Tulsa County Youth Services because they are a much larger-scale organization when being compared to Rogers County Youth Services. Tulsa County Youth Service’s communications coordinator was easily able to set our group up with date, time, and project that would fulfill the requirements for the group project. Collectively speaking, our entire group felt privileged to share this experience at Tulsa County Youth Services and we all were very impressed by the tremendous amount of services that were offered by Tulsa County Youth Services.

Children have a tendency to bring out the very best in people. I can say I have been fortunate to have four little blessings of my own. I consider each of them as a blessing and each day I am reminded of how much they mean to me. My children have brought out the best in me--parts that I never knew existed. As children grow, so do parents. I have evolved into a better person with the courage to overcome all obstacles because of the love that I have for my children.
