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’m interested in joining the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Incorporated. I would love to join this organization, because I love what they stand for and what they have done for the world so far. They have done things as opening school in Haiti and Africa, Delta house in Africa, and many other things. One of the reason I want to join this prestigious organization is because they do stuff to better the country that I was born in, and everything that’s helping Haiti becomes a better country is something I have to at least try to be a part of. It will also help me get started with my plan on opening a youth center in Haiti.
Growing up in a lower-middle class home, I have learned to be modest and frugal. I have also learned that nothing comes free and that everything must be earned through determination and hard work. So when I joined the Cub Scouts at age 7, I was determined to excel and achieve the highest rank in scouting, Eagle Scout. Since then, I have been intent on changing things for the better in everything I participated in. Ergo, having a lifetime goal to give back to the Earth, whether it be directly by studying chemistry to help the Earth or indirectly by donating some of my time and money back into the science field to help fund future developments of technology, seems best for the world.
Thank you for this opportunity. I apologize for the delay. I admit that I am not a great writer and should you not ask me to come in for an interview, I humbly welcome any constructive criticism in it 's place. I look forward to your response.
Greetings, I would love the opportunity to be considered for a Proofreader position should you have the need at this time. I have several years of college, but no degree and no desire to formally pursue more education. I do a lot of independent research concerning the topics that I find interesting and wish to know more of. They are varied and many. I do have various work experiences, including Law Library Clerk and several Administrative titles.
I sacrificed my time to help plan for the Relay for Life. The Relay for Life event changed people's lives because it inspired them to donate money to cancer research and to help join the fight to end cancer. The character pillar has shaped by development by making the excellent choices. I started helping out for the community in any way possible. I have gained a lot of responsibility through the National Honor Society because I was responsible for writing a Relay for Life speech and delivering a speech for the American Cancer Society.
The community and legacy of Baird Scholars is one that focuses on excelling and improving, not only oneself, but the entire community as a whole. Looking forwards, I feel I could greatly contribute to the Baird community. Throughout high school, I always took challenging or advanced classes in order to push myself, and to expand my knowledge. I also had many experiences both as a leader and a volunteer. My main experience in leadership was in the Tanque Verde Bible Club, a group started by a fellow student and carried on by a group of five leaders.
Currently, as a senior, I am gratified with all the decisions I have made throughout my four years. I am now leader of the SAFE Club (Students Are For Equality) and the FOR Club (Friends of River). The SAFE Club's main goal is to create more cultural awareness, and discuss current events dealing with race, gender, and sexual orientation. The FOR Club's main objective is to promote a healthy environment in our school and neighboring community by volunteering in any way possible. I am also in FMP (Freshman Mentoring Program), which guides high school freshman on the right path socially and academically.
Whenever I think about what I have learned since the beginning of this course—English 101, It always gives me a great pleasure to tell myself and people around me that I have learned something great; something that can make me a better writer. However, I have learned some writing skills based on the course’s teaching learning objectives that can help me in my future courses. Also, I’m glad, because my strength in writing essays have increased. Most especially, writing narrative essay in MLA formatting. I might not be an excellent writer, but I know I have not stopped learning, and I know I will get pay-off in the long run if I can keep the ongoing pace of my learning—guaranteed.
I am extremely honored to be eligible for this opportunity to apply for the National Honor Society. Becoming a member of the National Honor Society has been a goal I set for myself since I was a student in middle school. I have been greatly looking forward to this moment for a very long time. Overall, I have worked incredibly hard these last two years to display a positive character and obtain qualities such as leadership, responsibility, and scholarship. I strongly believe I will be a productive and reliable member of the National Honor Society at Harvard H. Ellis Technical High School.
University of the People’s relentless dedication for the advancement of education, and the students it serves is definitely embedded in its culture. The university’s central direction is inspired by its promise to “offer affordable, quality, online, degree-granting educational programs to any qualified student” (Undergraduate catalog, 2016, p.15). Keeping its mission statement in mind, students are given a unique opportunity to pursue a higher education at an affordable price, which many of us have never dreamt possible. University of the People’s students come from all around the world, that’s why a culture of inclusiveness characterized by a respect of all, is one of the key elements of the organization, which translates on how students interact
I am a member of the class of 2017 at Cornell University, and I am interested in working for the CIA with the Directorate of Operations. By next May, I will have received a B.A. in History and a B.A. in Performing and Media Arts. As I think about life after college, I have been thinking about how I will be able to change the world. Working for the CIA as part of the DO would be the ideal way to do so.
My interest in Zeta Phi Beta Sorority Inc. sparked when I met Sheila Hudson. At the time I had no idea that she was an active member of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority Inc. What I saw in Shelia Hudson was a smart, accomplished, proficient women who completely shattered all of my preconceived expectations of what I thought a sorority girl was supposed to be like.
Almost there. Almost to high school. This year so far has been a whole mix of emotions. I'm happy that schools almost over. I'm sad that I'm leaving most of my friends.
When people are asked when they decided to choose their career, the typical answer is that they have known they wanted to be in that career field since they were little kids. In Lorrie Moore’s short story, How to Become a Writer, she is able to bring . By using irony and having a humorous, yet mocking tone, Moore is able to tell the readers that the journey to becoming a writer is not easy and does not come naturally. In the beginning of the story, the readers are able to pick up Moore’s humorous and slightly mocking tone which helps the story become relatable because almost everyone has had a person make fun of their career choice.
