I Am Devoted Community Service

I am a student who serves because of all the clubs and organizations I am in. I volunteer and provide dependable and well organized assistance, I am gladly available and willing to sacrifice to offer assistance. Being in student council, means I have to represent our junior class which shows service to the school. Even when I am given committee and staff work, I work without complaint. I participate in some activity outside of school, giving service to the community. And of course I show courtesy by assisting vistors, teachers, and students when I am given the opportunity to do

Over the past year, I have served my school and community in many different ways. Whether it be through volunteering or participating in organizations that work to make changes in the lives of others. I try to stay involved in my environment. Currently, I am a student at Rockford Lutheran High School. With the multitude of clubs, my school offers, I am able to interact with other club members to promote student participation. Every year we participate in drives and fundraisers. In Key Club, each year we put together solider boxes. We collect a variety of small items and send hand packaged boxes to our fighting soldiers, as a gift for christmas. Other drives that I partake in are the canned food drives for the local food pantries, and the clothing drives to give winter clothing to those less fortunate. This helps to provide this vulnerable population with warmth during the cold winter months.

As of now, my role in my community has been being an active and diligent student. These characteristics are evident in how I occupy myself with school sports such as badminton and soccer, and engage in other club activities while still keeping my grades up by putting in hours

Due to my involvement in my school, I have a plethora of opportunities that affect my community. As a member of the National Honor Society, we stay involved in activities that benefit our chapter and Walkerton itself. For instance, we annually undergo a food drive at our school in order to supply food for the people in the community. Then we transport the food to the food pantry and once every month we take turns to distribute the food to the people who need it. This distribution we do for the community aids the people in need as most people receiving the food are unable to transport the food themselves. Alongside the food drives, I spend hours of volunteering for concessions, tutoring students after school, and aiding for the band teacher.

A Community is like a family outside of home, and I always aim to do the best for it. I spent most of my time in the community at church and at school. At Church I assist in bringing planned events to fruition. I help create an environment in and out of school that is warm and welcoming, I accomplish this through music or actions. Tulare Western High School is a better place thanks to the joint efforts of everyone enrolled. At school rallies and football games wouldn't be same without people like me who love their school, and give it spirit. Without us they'd be nearly soulless, and erring. Not only do people such as I make school experiences more memorable, we contribute and thank others through our actions, for example in December our entire

Growing up down South, I did not have many academic opportunities, so, therefore, I participated in many clubs at school. To be a part of these clubs, there were certain requirements such as community service and a certain GPA. I have volunteered in several ways, but the main one that meant the most to me was being able to help my community by volunteering at the Community Center, educating and helping students engage in extracurricular activities that kept them interested in their academic courses. All of the clubs that I’ve participated in have always been to help my community inside and outside of school- not only do I volunteer my time to help those in need, but I also volunteer for many leadership roles. One leadership role that I find leaves a lasting impact is that of Boston Student Advisory Council, where I represent my high school and come up with innovative ways to better serve my

I’m interested in this position because I love the work that the Civic House does and I want to contribute my skills and experience to that work. This position appeals to me because I feel that I could what is necessary to support the initiatives related to community engagement and social justice. I find it exciting to have the opportunity to promote meaningful education, engagement, and community at Penn. During my senior year of high school, I held the office of Board of Education Representative on Student Government. The office required me to take concerns from the student body, create a report-style speech, and present one every month to the board, teachers, and parents. I also gave back to the community by serving part-time at the weekly

That growing up can be a quite tough and extremely emotional. One of my most important life experiences is playing soccer. When I was 3 years old I was put on my first soccer team. Soccer is a big part of my culture and my family on my dad’s side. This sport has tons of meaning to us and everyone in my family has played soccer before.

In 5th, 6th, and 7th grade, I played on the Rogers School soccer team. This experience helped me a lot in leaderships skills, because most of the team wasn’t as experienced as me. Even though I won MVP both years on the JV team, the entire team worked very hard and in 6th grade we went the farthest the JV team had ever gone, playing in the city finals. In those same years, e I participated in a special soccer training program, ODP (Olympic Development Program), and made it to the state team, where I represented Illinois in various tournaments. Now I spend most of my time on schoolwork and playing for my club soccer team, so I am unable to continue to do many other extracurricular activities: but I am actually currently involved in a program before school, where a couple of my fellow schoolmates and I tutor students that are struggling in

Currently, I volunteer and participate at numerous places; that include recreation centers, my current high school, public library, and etc. I commit my time to serve the community and the school with events like open house, food drives, school tours, and etc. I volunteer for different programs like lifeguard, link crew leader, tutor and etc. Throughout my high school life, I always took charge as a leader to help the community and the school with any occasion. I look for opportunities to help the community and school and that includes charity work, food drives and etc. I will contribute to the local and the community of the Laurier by volunteering for different occasions like university tours, charity work, and food drive. I also will contribute

I enjoyed playing Soccer because I could unite with other people and make other people feel happy. When I was in Guatemala, I practiced soccer almost every day and I wanted to play soccer for the major leagues. One day in Guatemala when I was walking on the streets and I saw a sign that said: “club Aguilas FC would be making tryouts for new players.” Before I went to the tryouts I practiced like crazy because I want to get in the team.

The school required a test for admission, so the competition was getting fierce. The teachers focused a lot on our academics and tried to squeeze as much time as they can from us to study. As the result, we were not allowed to play soccer during our free time because it hinders us from studying. Maybe it is human tendency to break laws, but the gang of us didn’t want to conform to that rule so sneaking a soccer ball to school and keep it away from the teachers became an everyday challenge. It was amazing the kind of ideas we came up with for this task. Soccer added spices into my otherwise boring school life, and it served as a channel between me and my fellow classmates. Through soccer we found a common ground, that we were able to know each other more and support each other no matter what happens. It gave us a sense of unity, and it was very important to me. Even now I cherish the pact I had with them back then - the support that helped me to stay on the right track during my rebel teenage years.

This past year was the first year in my high school athletic career that I played starting goalie for the soccer team. I played previous years, but they were different as I was not in goal. The feeling and excitement of being in goal was like a euphoria. We do not always win but being a goalie changed my life! I have played soccer since I was in 8th grade. It is a way for me to release my aggression in a healthy and stable way. I have played defense and offense, but I had never been a goalie until August 28th, 2017.

Soccer has been one of the biggest parts of my life. I started at the age of 3 and ever since it has been my number one way to relieve stress and forget about stuff going on out of soccer. But this all got taken away from me on the day I tore my acl, February 27th. Soccer wasn’t just a sport to me, It was a way I lived.

Soccer consumes the majority of my free time. I started playing organized soccer at age 5 and found it gave me freedom to explore new concepts and to push myself to excel. I was never interested in team sports and leaned toward swimming or tennis where I didn’t have to rely on anyone else for my success or failures; however, as my love for soccer grew, I found I could push myself as an individual, honing my skills, while learning to rely on teammates to executing play efficiently. This has been a lesson in learning to trust my teammates to give their all. Soccer has also been a source of
