Every volunteer experience here has been nice. Sweet staff, lovely interactions with people coming through the gardens.
Some of the skills that I improved on is communication skills. As this service relied on me interacting with people, specifically children. I also improved on my team working skills as I did work with someone else during this experience. This service changed my perspective into other service opportunities that I would be interested in serving in. It also showed me the importance of having events like this in the Memphis community. I was able to meet the person that was over the volunteers for this service. But I also met someone that’s from the University of Memphis that I was able to learn more about. I would continue working with this organization because this service event was really amazing to do. It made me so happy to be able to interact with so many different people. This service did align with my values as I really enjoy arts and crafts. But I also enjoy being able to work with children and instructing them with art related tasks. It felt really nice to feel as though I was able to make an impact in the community today.
