Greetings, A quick introduction, I am Edison Lewark and I am your OCIO CFC coordinator this year. I am very excited to be the coordinator as it will give me chance to meet you as we all work together to help those who cannot help themselves. In echoing the Secretary’s statements about the Department being the third highest contributor the national capital area last year, I am sure the Team OCIO will not only meet but outperform last year efforts. We all know what CFC is about and we know what a noble cause it is but if may share a personal story of how I have seen it work and it can make a significant change in people’s lives. I am a former DC police officer and I have worked in the poorest parts of our great city and in working in those …show more content…
When I inquired about why she might have gotten a lower grade she stated that she did not have access to a computer and the internet to perform the research needed on a timely basis. Through the great programs in CFC and people like you who contribute, I was able to get her the resources she needed to do research and write excellent research papers. As you can see CFC does help and provides light where dark as resided for a long time. The act of giving can be a very rewarding and that reward is the feeling of “show the love” to a fellow human being. As a police officer, I encountered good and bad, witnessed many interesting events, and some miracles, especially in DC. One of these interesting events happened, while working at detail at Howard University, some students were protesting a political issue (nothing new in DC or at Howard University), I was rushed by one of the students and some of my fellow officers thought I was being attacked (this was several years ago and not related to the issues of today with officers) and immediately came to help subdue the student. Well, it’s not what you think, it was the girl that I helped earlier. She was now a senior at Howard and ran to give me a hug, once she
In addition to tutoring and mentoring the children in the community, Jacelyn also holds the position as Volunteer and Outreach Coordination, requiring her recruit, organize, and oversee student volunteers in the project. In addition, due to financial constraints in her family, Jacelyn also has an off-campus job that requires her to work many late nights and weekends. This ability to manage two jobs, a research assistant position, and consistent participation in community service while maintaining her exceptional GPA at an academically rigorous institution like UCLA demonstrates her admirable character, work ethic, and time management, valuable skills found in few students.
Educating the partners on the prevalence of abuse in our community and what we can do to protect more kids, increases the capacity to lead community efforts. Each meeting that I hold at the CAC shares a little bit of knowledge about emerging trends and practices in our work. Having representation from the various groups is essential for this capacity building and also having more community education events.

By advertising the benefits of partnership with FBLA, we can encourage both large and small businesses to form partnerships and lead to them sponsoring our awards and other activities. FBLA has partnered with March of Dimes since 1970, to support a very important cause. I aim to increase our involvement with the organization at the local and state level by organizing new fundraisers that draw in chapters and communities. And of course, it’s very important that each of you are able to be who you desire to be in the future. As secretary, I will support programs that allow more students to be involved in local businesses and even have internships. The ideas I have are set up in order to expand our organization, but also impact your future for the better. Think about yourself. Who do you want to be, and how do you want to get there? Set yourself up for a better future by voting to be a better business leader. It’s up to you to decide if you want to make an impact, or be forgotten like a dead meme. That’s why I urge you to vote Neha Arun for FBLA State Secretary. Thank You, and best wishes for your competitive

So, my friend and I gladly agreed to help him carry all his food and followed the boy to his apartment. When we got there, he opened the door and I was absolutely astonished at what I saw. Never in a million years would I have guessed that this boy who was always smiling and as happy as could be lived in a place that had only two pieces of furniture, an old falling apart couch and fridge with no food. This showed me that you can never really know what's going on in someone's life. The happiest of people could be going through some of the worst times of their lives. This experience and many others that I’ve had through my NCL experience are the reason that I love community service so much. Not only do I have the ability to impact someone's life through each charity I help, they also have an impact on me. I find charity work to be my biggest interest because I love seeing the impact I can have on someone’s life that they may have never had before. I am excited to continue my community service work throughout my college experience and look forward to finding a way that I can include this passion in my chosen major or future line of
Working in partnership with families: supporting, wherever possible, those who know the child or young person well, know what they need, what works well for them and what may not be helpful as any information given will help the child and reduce any problems later (what food do they like) or triggers etc
Therapeutic communities childcare: this is an approach that meets both the the physical and emotional needs of the service users.
As the leader of the criminal justice honor society at ASU, I have created partnerships with volunteer organizations such as the 100 Club of AZ, and have continued partnerships with Free Arts of Arizona, the Rearley Foundation, and Release the Fear. As the leader of the school organization, I have been able to engage in volunteer actives that have raised awareness about abused children and families in need. I have also implemented a provisional membership program within our organization to promote academic successes with freshman through mentorships, counseling, and tutoring. I have contributed an average of 20 hours per week to the honor society. I have also created a mentorship program with the Mesa Police Department that allows students to engage with the department to prepare them for career opportunities. I have set up events at ASU with the ASU Police Department, Maricopa County Attorney’s Office and Maricopa County Office of Public Defender to bring more resources to students. I have a high belief in doing the very best you can. I have seen many students who think they are unable to be as successful as other and I have attempted to mentor those students to help them understand their full potential. I personally never thought I would ever attend a university or pass classes with a high GPA. However, I have learned that we are only limited by ourselves, and all of us are capable of
After being inducted into National Honor Society my junior year, I have been working with children at Matoaca Elementary School on a weekly basis to gain the community service hours the honor society requires. I work alongside the computer teacher to assist in helping kindergarteners learn how to use a computer. Many of these children had never used a mouse or a keyboard, and some didn't know all of their numbers and letters. The progress they have made since September has made me very proud of them, and the educational activities they do on the computer has helped them improve their math and reading skills. Before I started to volunteer there, I had never been exposed to an environment where I was to fill the role of an educator and role model
Through National Honors Society, I have gained self-confidence, empathy and respect not only for teachers, but also for employees who diligently fulfill their responsibilities. Volunteering allows participants to perceive certain situations from different perspectives and therefore has allowed me to enhance my understanding of the plights teachers and young students may encounter on a daily basis. From grading a gigantic stack of assignments to engaging in mundane tasks such as tearing out multiple worksheets from workbooks, there are many events that occur outside of typical school hours that I would not have been able to witness and learn from had I not been an active member of National Honors Society. Likewise, now reflecting on all my volunteering at my local
As the Communications Coordinator for the Cobbs National Drug Manufacturer (CNDM) there is rising concern around recent events from the media exposure on the adverse effects one of our nationally advertised medications has had on the Chief-of-Police. According to Athena du Pre, PhD, “Lack of communication can lead to duplicated efforts, costly (and sometimes life-threatening) delays, frustration, and wasted time” (Du Pre, 2005, p. 289) and our goal is to maintain open communication. Today’s meeting will help identify several ways to deliver our message. Today’s meeting will help to brainstorm
I participate in Student Leadership Team at C-Tec. I volunteered at multiple community events such as our annual open house and our schools’ evening of exploration. One of our most important duties is to host student run tours and other events to peak new students’ interest in attending C-Tec. Without our service younger students would never get to experience the unique qualities of C-Tec. I currently have obtained 25 volunteer
To help this fourth grader and many other students struggling, Lawrence Catholic Academy has volunteers such as myself and some of my peers that attempt to help these children as much as possible. I believe honestly believe that what I am doing by helping this fourth grader is out of true generosity. I genuinely enjoy helping others and from this experience, it just confirms that being a teacher and helping students is what I want to do with my life.
ACME Communications Equipment, Inc. appears to have a number of issues within their supply chain. ACME has one problem that is described as “considerable annoyance” to customers, their flawed order system. This is a huge issue that needs particular attention as the ordering process correlates directly with other problems ACME is facing. We will address this issue and others and attempt to correct the problems noticed.
