I wish to volunteer for the Texas Heath Dallas because I would like to gain experience and knowledge about careers in medicine as well as give back to the community. Volunteering in hospitals helps you learn about health care and how the hospital experience is different for social classes. You will see patients at their highest and lowest extremes of emotion and be able to assist them with the rudimentary yet crucial tasks. I would like to gain experience with working with others especially since everyone is unique with their own personalities and experiences. My future goal is to become a cardiologist, however, not just a cardiologist.
I was able to train the students in there for them to get better. Even walking around, I seem to always find people in need of help and love being able to help people in need. Every time I had extra food, I would always give it to the homeless because I know that it would be of much better use in their hands than in mine. For my Freshman year, I participated in a club named Heart in Motion. What that club did was volunteer at different places to help at events like acting as a security guard or give food and water for runners at marathons.
I applied to volunteer because I knew that I was going to need the experience in the future. Even at 13 I was sure that I enjoyed the medical field and wanted to pursue it as a career. The process was made easier due to my connections in the hospital; my mother was the head nurse of the Women’s Health clinic, and the head of the Red Cross office was a friend of ours. I loved every second of volunteering and spent at least three eight-hour days there every week for the entire summer from 2012 to 2014. At the end of each summer I had logged at least 100 volunteer hours and been given the opportunity to make connections in the hospital as well as view procedures in various

Doctor of Social Work Program Application Personal Statement Ashley Newberry LCSW, LISW As I child, I was introduced to the human service field in a unique way. For as long as I can remember, my mother has had a human service profession and provided me with daily examples of how to help others. One of my earliest memories is riding out a hurricane while we stayed in the adult group home where my mother worked, assisting with safety measures for residents and providing comfort to her community. My mother worked in multiple residential programs throughout my life, specializing her work with individuals with developmental and physical disabilities.
My Volunteering Experience at St. Mary Medical Center It wasn’t for the volunteer hours needed for school or the need to do something. It was all about giving back to the community for me.

Before starting my PhD, I worked in the social care sector with youth and families as a Detroit-area youth counsellor, social work and program manager of social services for children and youth with disabilities. This allowed
Ever since I was a child, I have always loved going to the hospital.

My interest in volunteering comes from the desire of new experiences in partaking in organizations like this. It gives me the satisfaction, with this wonderful opportunity to interact with patients and aid them at the Presbyterian Medical Center. Ever since I was a kid, I was very much interested in the duties performed by a doctor. I was always fascinated to see the doctor wearing a stethoscope and treating patients with utmost care. I would love to serve the humanity with the same devotion and care.
There is no other field that both challenges and inspires me to succeed and grow professionally than the field of social work. I look to not only progress further in my studies, but utilize this in my pursuit of helping others.

I hold extensive experience in working with a diverse population as well as implementing culturally appropriate resources and services.

What sparked my interest in social work Going through as much trauma as I did, I had no hope, my earliest suicidal thought I can remember was when I was old 6 years old. There was abuse daily for all of my siblings rather it was physical or mental by my mother. Unfortunately, I was the sibling who also was sexually abused by cousins and my mother's boyfriend. Growing up I never thought I’d get out of the “hood”.
I believe that the mission of a student ambassador is to promote the vision, growth and quality of University of Maryland, by optimizing the experience of current students, prospective students and special guests. I would like to be a student ambassador primarily because I want to get more involved with the university; not to mention the positive impact it will have on my CV. I would also gain experience in public speaking, building friendships with fellow ambassadors and develop my leadership skills. Furthermore, this offers a responsibility that can be both challenging and extremely rewarding.
The situation at the homes of the children also varies – some come from orphanages and others from loving families who accompany them to the hospital. Why is helping other people my passion? It is hard to explain, but essentially I want to be useful to the society, especially to the children who are in desperate need of attention. Coming back home from a long day at the hospital with plenty of emotions, thoughts and plans for the future feels incredible. Due to that, I wonder – do I give more or do I receive more by being a volunteer?
