KEEP
CALM
and
ACT LIKE
A 13oss
As the school year progresses, I am keeping up with giving back to my community. As a member of National Honor Society, I fulfill my duty of showing leadership qualities and serving my community. Currently, I am helping out local non-profit organization, ACTS (Action in Community Through Service), with the help of my friends, we get together and help ACTS in any way possible. On some days we have scheduled to go to their office and help them unload goods received, then help them package the goods into bags that are given to families in need.
Now, my project I did with my Global Citizen group was about education and helping Haitians educators get the right facilities and tools to teach their students. But something that I am doing at home is something small but humble and giving. Helping families have the basic food and clothing is the foundation to those children getting education and succeeding in life.
In the near future, the small committee we have in NHS that specifically does this service, is planning to have bake sales at school to raise money so that we can buy Christmas gifts from the lists of families that cannot afford them. Every child deserves to have faith and some fun during the holiday seasons. Thus, doing this small act of kindness will only make us better people in the world. :D
I'll keep updating you all on my small ways of giving back!!!
