My Contribution To Alpha Phi Omega

I volunteered in the community mostly through our soccer teams. From Freshmen year to Senior year I have helped out with our Modified soccer teams. I helped coach with Travis Antilla, Adam Soke, and Dillon Nugent. The players all respected me because I was an older player and on the varsity team. I feel I really assisted in spreading the soccer culture to players and teaching them more about the game. I was doing little things to push them such as, always running, cleaning up after practice, and practicing even more afterwards. The importance of this was that, the kids who saw me doing the “harder work” realized that they could do it as well. Andrew Belcher, one

I participated in my schools Beautification Project by cleaning up the school grounds and surrounding area. I pulled weeds, planted flowers, laid mulch, picked up trash and painted. This was important to me because it allowed me to give back to the area I both live and attend school. I have baked and distributed cookies to families at the Ronald Me Donald House. I have also prepared snack packs for families at the Ronald Me Donald House- prepared bags with pudding cups cheese crackers, chips, granola bars and muffins. These were provided to families so that they could have access to a snack while at the hospital with their child. I have sort/packed food at the Mid-Ohio Food Bank, volunteered as a community meal server and donate blood regularly. I also assisted with coordinating the blood drive at my

The acts of community service I have participated in FBLA has taught and strengthen my belief that charity is the most important gestures any person can due to have a beneficial impact in the world; is to help a person in need. For instances, our organization has collected Christmas gifts for underprivileged children in the Henry County community each year and the act of giving a child without access to toys for the holidays something as simple as a toy car has brought the greatest

The most significant contribution that I have made to Alpha Phi thus far was my work on Phi Chapter's 2017 Red Dress Gala. Psi Chapter raised over $35,000 for The Alpha Phi Foundation, and it is an incredible feeling knowing I had a part in this fundraising. From April-September 30th (the day of the event) I worked with the Vice President of Marketing, the Red Dress Gala Chair, and each of my other sisters on the Red Dress Gala team. We worked to secure donations, sponsors, created decorations for the events, ensured sisters had their silent auction baskets done in time, and worked the day of the event to make sure everything went smoothly. My job was focused on the live auction and thanking donors and sponsors after the event. I worked all

Throughout my senior year, I was captain of the cheer team and the basketball team. I really enjoyed leading them through the challenges and the successful times. Also, every other Friday I travel to our elementary school with some of my fellow classmates, and help the teachers and students out with any necessary tasks. We work one on one with the students, and sometimes we just listen to them read and pronounce words correctly. I think that I serve my community with great effort.

I am apart of an organization through called the National Honors Society which is all about helping people through volunteer. I have been apart of this organization for three years now and we do things from taking elderly to the lake for the day, volunteer to help at benefits, raise money for cancer patients, and help out at our local fair selling burgers. These events have taught me not

On my journey to Eagle Scout, I assisted my fellow scouts in many construction and environmental community projects. Together we cleared areas of the Mississippi Sandhill Crane Refuge, built a greenhouse for an elementary school, and an outdoor sanctuary for a local church. As well, I have participated every year in the annual Coastal Cleanup. For my own Eagle Project I lead a group of scout and adult volunteers to paint the exterior fascia, walls, and railings of my own church. I also volunteer at my church by helping with the younger children. I would say that community service has shaped the person I have become and has helped me grow in more ways than one.

I have been in National Honor Society for a few months now and have participated in a couple of community service projects. The community service project that I'm most proud of and has had the most significant takeaway for me is when we helped gave food and clothes to the people that stayed in the community. Taking Care of Our Own Day is an event where people come and get clothes and food for the family. As a volunteer I helped carry people's bags of food while they went around looking for what they needed. This event is done yearly and each year we have more people that come and receive our charity. This experience affected me in a great deal. It not only showed me that I was blessed for having food to eat and clothes to wear but also that

I do many small things to improve my community. Things such as picking up trash when I see it in public, volunteering monthly to help supervise my younger brothers class, or donating clothes seasonal to homeless shelters. Something I am proud of is that every year on Thanksgiving and during Christmas time, my family and I volunteer at the Downtown Los Angeles homeless shelters helping feeding the less

When we went to the community clean up we had to clean a dog park. One school cleared and painted on the parking lot. While our group conformed to yard work by the dog park. The work may have not seemed important but it was. I believe the way we take care of our community is another way we show how we treat our neighbors and friends. We were working together, laughing, listening to music, and play at the park when we were done. In fact it wasn't that hard with a barren area but near the end we were deprived of water. I'm not sure if its plausible we made much of a difference but it did make difference between the freshmen and sophomores

As a student as Western, I have been given many opportunities to get involved with the community. First, I was a mentor for Compass to Campus and went to help volunteer at a high school every week for a quarter. While mentoring, I was able to tutor students and talk about my experience in college with the students I was working with. Next, I have volunteered many times on campus to work at craft fairs. This has been nice because I have been able to work with elementary age students and I want to be an elementary school teacher! I love volunteering any chance I can to give back to the local community, especially when it involves my passion

An organization I been part of for several years that has had a great impact in my life is my church’s youth group. As a member of my church’s youth group, I have helped our community in several ways. Such as in performing certain activities to try to make our community feel safe and united. Being involved with my community has molded my personality and it has made me realize I have an ambition in helping others.

In order to work towards my goal of becoming an active member of society in the social field, I have been engaged in various community services. Firstly, I was a member of the Operation Smile group. This was a community-based organization that raised money for operations for children with cleft palate in Ethiopia. These children are discriminated against and live segregated from society as they are deemed abnormal.

Another reason that I have helped with the community is during the cold winters we have here in Ohio, I shovel people's driveways, sidewalks, and porches. I have done these things without even asking and I did it just because I felt like it. I did another favor for my neighbors by also doing their whole driveway. I even did a lady that lives across the street from me because I felt like being nice and productive. this is another reason how and why I helped with the community

Helping the community is a big part in how our world grows and improves every day.
