CASA stands for court appointed court advocates and is a program that has been created to stand up for children in the foster care system and to help them fight for a safe home ("National Court Appointed). The mission statement for CASA is together with state and local member programs CASA supports and promotes court-appointed volunteer advocacy so every abused or neglected child in the U.S. can be safe, have a permanent home and opportunity to thrive ("National Court Appointed). I really connect with CASA because in the future I would love to either foster, adopt or both. I would love to give a permanent home to a child who has no real place to call home. At the sisterhood retreat we had a CASA advisor come to us talk about her job.
I was the community service coordinator/ secretary I organized events that we would volunteer such as a walk for autism, volunteering at St Rita’s Church and volunteering at numerous hospitals. In Interact
The organization, which I decided to volunteer two hours of my day to, was Cumac. Cumac is located in Paterson, New Jersey and they work to serve the people in the counties of Passaic, Paterson, and Northern New Jersey. They work with a staff of 21 and volunteers from all over to help people in need with food and supplies they would need to survive. Their mission statement is: “CUMAC feeds people and changes lives. It works to alleviate hunger and its root causes for those in need in Paterson, Passaic County, and northern New Jersey.”
As is stated in the interview paper I used to work at a restaurant called Culver’s. Culver’s mission statement is: Every guest who walks through the door in every neighborhood, from Wisconsin to Texas, gets the same friendly treatment we offered on our very first day in 1984. We bring the often forgotten, hometown values of quality and customer service to neighborhoods throughout the country. Quality food and fresh ingredients are the hallmarks of any Culver’s experience, but we understand that a great meal is so much more than just good food.
However, because I willingly ask to participate in school and community events, I sacrifice personal time. Over the years, I have strenuously volunteered for activities, such as the Winter Dance and Million Bulb Walk, proudly. Additionally, in fifth grade, I was awarded the Brickell Leadership Award for my outstanding leadership. In group projects, I speak
I organized multiple clothing, food, and book drives. While I was a Girl Scout, I earned my Bronze and Silver award: the second and third highest awards a Girl Scout can earn. Some other examples of events that I’ve planned to give back to my community are cheer clinics, movie nights, and 8th grade prom. I also have gift wrapped at the KMCC during the holiday season, tutored students at the Intermediate School, volunteered at the Ramstein Bazaar, picked up trash around the base, and bagged groceries at the commissary multiple times. Taking action in the community is important to me because I like to make positive impacts that benefit the lives of
Of my many volunteer and paid extra-curricular activities, the most important to me is the National Art Honor Society, which extends artistic activities to my community. We organize two school events: the Festival of Trees and the Talent Competition. The Festival of Trees is an event when every school club can choose to donate and decorate a tree that we set up. All of the money raised goes to an organization of our choice. For the last 4 years, we have donated to Street Grace, which benefits the fight against human trafficking, especially in the Metro Atlanta area.
Segregation is the action of setting someone or many apart from others. During the story, Mississippi Trial, 1955, Emmett Till is one of many black people who are treated unfairly and are ripped apart from their own community. Hiram noticed the indifference between black and white people. He decides he wants to take action and fix the horrible problems that many are facing. Throughout the novel, Mississippi Trial, 1955, by Chris Crowe, Hiram experiences ups and downs all through the story.
The role of event chair entitles me to completely organize, our entire event from scratch, to opt for the most successful Relay for Life event of the year. As of now, my event has raised twenty one percent of our goal, and it only increases, with each day. This experience has been extremely rewarding,
Through my organization, I have earned over 500 hours of community service and was awarded the Presidential Volunteer Service Bronze Medallion for my continued efforts in giving back to the community. During the summer, I assist
I. Mission Statement with Goals When I entered the University of Arizona my main objective was to take advantage of all the learning opportunities offered during lectures and labs. Here I have had the opportunity to take interesting and challenging courses. My ultimate academic goal is to graduate as prepared as possible in order to put all my knowledge to use in my future career. My career goal is to form part of a public or private agency that helps regulate or monitor the conditions of the environment. I want to be part of an organization that helps remediate all the damage caused by the increasing contamination in the world.
The activities and events we host are always very fun and exciting. I have been a volunteer since my freshman year of high school, which is when they allow you to be a volunteer. Before that you may participate in the activities. I feel that this volunteer project does benefit both me and the recipients, because I get to experience such an amazing act of kindness that changes a person 's life forever. It also benefits the recipients, because they get to have their lives changed forever.
As the founder, I was involved in recruiting prospective members, serving as a liaison between the players, coaches, and parents, and most
This organization impacts all its members whether they realize it or not and the things they learn stick with them throughout their lives. FCCLA has inspired me to make a bigger difference than I am with just being an FCCLA member. I believe that I can make a difference with FCCLA by taking on the role of being the FCCLA chapter president. Also, I have lots of ideas on how to improve our
Likewise, I was never aware of the tremendous amount of happiness and sense of togetherness that comes with seeing the faces of students enjoying our sponsored events and other organizations hearing about our efforts on campus. Being the president of SHAC has truly been a blessing to me and has opened my eyes to my true potential as a leader. I no longer shy away from speaking in front of large groups, question whether or not to share my opinions on topics and believe that there is only one way to successfully accomplish a goal. Although I would love to say that SHAC has helped Brady Health and students here on campus, I know that it is being in SHAC that has truly helped me. I have developed into a person that I would not have recognized during my early days as a college student if it has not been for this leadership role.
