Statement Of Purpose: Fiji Sun, Sand, And Service

"Let us sacrifice our today so that our children can have a better tomorrow." was said by a very wise man, the former President of India A. P. G. Abdul Kalam. In this quote he does not only mean children but he means the people close to us in general, we must learn to sacrifice for others so that we're not the only ones becoming better but the people around us are too. Furthermore, when I was in sixth grade I was initially going to go on a two-day music trip to Hershey Park in Pennsylvania, and I was very excited to finally head out into the world by myself without my parents holding my hand. Not only that, but this was something I had been preparing for months to perform the first time in front of a judge and be graded

A Chinese Proverb once proclaimed, “A child's life is like a piece of paper on which every person leaves a mark.” Since my heart has always had a special place for children, I’m forever wanting to help them in any way I can. However, after babysitting teachers’ children after school when I was in elementary school, to helping teach a little girl we homeschooled a while back, I constantly wondered if I made a difference in the lives of children I came in contact with. Thinking back on several opportunities God has given me through packing Christmas stockings for foster children, working with first graders in Good News Club, and teaching special needs riders, I pray I have left marks on the lives of at least a few children.

The Fiji Islands is a very fun but also an interesting place. With several islands to choose from, it is a very tourist attracting place. Not just popular for its beautiful scenery, the Fiji Islands also has wonderful warm weather all year long. Filled with all different cultures, the Fiji Islands have no established language. It is also very perusing because of all its natural resources. Although the Fiji Islands are made up of different islands and cultures it all comes together to make one spectacular place.

The last principle stewardship is about being a responsible guardian. It means that we are supposed to care for the gifts that God has given us including things like the environment, our own personal talents and other resources.so as Catholics we are called to take action by looking after something you have been authorized with. This can be seen in the way caritas took Fiji under its wing and helped Fiji regain its strength through their tough time.

Additionally, Fiji presents numerous opportunities to volunteer in the community and conduct research within marine eco-systems. One passion of mine has always been assisting the disadvantaged and understanding the steps that I can personally take to reduce the various global disparities. In particular, I am extremely fascinated with aquatic species and those on the edge of extinction or in extreme danger. As a child, one of my most treasured experiences was when I had the incredible opportunity to swim with dolphins in Turks and Caicos, and learned about their habit and imminent threats. Specifically, in Fiji, 5 out of the 7 species of marine turtles are severely endangered due to over exploitation and immense habitat destruction. Compared

I spent part of my summer in both 2014 and 2015, providing the children at Camp Impact, with an escape from their disadvantaged reality. The experience of working with these children, has provided me with a valuable perspective, and a new lens through which I see the world.

Fiji is a country in the South pacific, middle of the Equator, and the South Pole. Fiji’s government was a British crown colony from year 1874 to 1970. Fiji was a dual system of governance, one for the whole country, and the other for the ethnic Fijian population. British officials tended to avoid interfering in the issue of the autonomous Fijian administration. The colony then had an executive council conquered by the governor and British administrators and a legislative council that eventually included resident European as well as Fijians legislators. Fiji then became an independent nation on October 10th 1970. Fiji achieved independence as a dominion within the British Nation and an ethnically-based parliamentary democracy with an independent

I became very involved with the orphanage and always looked to improve the kids’ lives, because I can’t help but feel helpless when I see the thousands of orphans roaming the streets of Port-au-Prince, and helping those kids makes me feel like I am contributing, in one way or another, to the improvement of my country’s youth.

In the South Pacific Ocean, about 1,300 miles north of New Zealand, there is a country that is made of 300 islands and 540 islets. These islands combined form the Republic of Fiji. Out of all 300 islands, only about 150 are inhabited by humans. The largest island is Viti Levu, also known as Great Fiji, and the capital is Suva. Fiji is a democratic country, with the government system set up very similar to the United States. Sports are also popular in Fiji, such as rugby and soccer. My goal is to inform readers about the Republic of Fiji

This event further influenced my goals of maintaining a happy home right now, and for my future family. With my involvment in this Awareness Walk, it influenced me to decide what career I'd like to someday have. It prompted me to help children in unsafe situations by pursuing a career in child advocacy law Through this career, I truly believe it would bring me happiness and success. I believe success is not solely the acquisition of material possession. Success is the internal prosperity of mentality and

Everyone should be motivated to make a change whether it involves healing the sick, strengthening the weak, creating a balance in society, or even acknowledging a problem and doing something about it. Children are encouraged to have the desire for change and the common good, however, studies show other wise. Children are now born into an ignorant generation where due to lack of ambition, an adolescent is quick to sell their dreams short. Studies show based on surveys, "One in five children aged up to 10 years old say they just want to be rich" (Perry, "One in Five Children"). In order to become the best of the best one must have ambition and motivation to make a change. The program, FACES for the Future created by Tomas Magana creates opportunities for children. People Magazine describe the program as a wonderful and influencing recourse for students wish to thrive. People Magazine also

The future is the children, yet many are choosing to be runaways and headed to the

The work is challenging, exciting, occasionally surreal, yet intensely gratifying in reaching the most vulnerable Filipino children. It also allows me to continuously learn and develop, while helping me achieve my personal goal, which is to make a lasting difference in the lives of my countrymen.
