Every year I try to volunteer for breast cancer because it is a big part of lots of lives including my family. I helped set up for the even by making sure everyone was set where they where supposed to and helped sign people in.
This is the time where the following week, I brought my brother along to help set up some toys for the drive. Our job was to unpack and evenly organize the toys for certain ages. We came in at 9:00 and left at 1:00 like we did last week. It was a great experience and something I will do again.
I believe that this volunteer experience is differently something to remember. Seeing all the toys that the kids could potentially get had me excited to help out. Before the toys came in, I had to make sure all the batteries and boxes where set up so when we go in the next week, we will not have any problems.
It was amazing to see how many people where coming in to buy plants. I saw this opportunity to see what kind of plants they had while also learning about the importance of having plants. I was tasked with helping people carry their stuff to the car once they bought the plants
This event was a lot of fun see kids come in and learn about the types of things that I am studying. I was in charge of helping Professor Headley, my Thermodynamics teacher, with a showing of how thermo energy works. It was awesome to see because I wish I had something like this at my school when I was a kid.
It was a great time seeing the people who needed coats able to get them. It is always nice to donate and volunteer, but it's even better when you have a direct impact
I took the opportunity to volunteer at Shelby Farms Park to help set up everything needed for a cancer walk. It was a fun time setting up the tents and signs along with wetting up everyone's special backs that where made to the people who lost there lives to cancer. It is definitely something that I see myself doing again.
It was a great experience working with youth villages YV5K run. I was in charge of being a volunteer in the children's area overseeing the bouncy house area. It was great seeing lots of people gathered and raising money for a great cause. I would definitely recommend others to come out and volunteer with youth villages.
