    I decided to start volunteering at the local humane society because I’ve always been really passionate about animals and wanted to start benefiting them in the community. Prior to my service I was delighted because I’ve wanted to start volunteering for years and was glad the opportunity had presented itself.

    When I first came to this agency, I encounter many difficulties but those terrible things did not affect my mood to interview. I had an interview on Wednesday who know that there was very terrible weather on my interview day. This weather made me feel lost and sad, in the beginning I was overwhelmed. At home I spent the time to search the Carefirst history and the bus route information. When I drop off the bus, I was lost. I walked around on the street in this rain storm; therefore, my clothes totally get wet. When I walked to find Carefirst, I observed that there a Sliver Star Medical Centre and the other senior services which call Tee Hong Centre located nearby the Carefirst. Lucky, I arrived at the interview on time and when I arrived at the agency there are two seniors who both greeted me with a smile on their faces. It made me feel full of courage and joyful that put those unhappy things forget.…

    I have had the opportunity to volunteer for the last several weeks. I had never really volunteered before, so I knew that this was my opportunity to do some community service to help others. I have found through the experience that I really like to volunteer, so in the near future I will probably volunteer on my own, rather than doing it for a class. Doing service projects is a great way to get involved with the community. There are always people and businesses looking for help, and it is usually easy to find a way to help. When I had to do volunteer services for psychology, I was excited because I had never really volunteered for a long period of time. It was very interesting, because it actually made me feel like a better person for helping someone in the community. I volunteered at the Manchester Church of the Brethren Preschool. I chose that place, because I am an education major, and I thought that it would help me be able to work with children. I love working with children every chance that I can. While I was volunteering/observing, I learned many things that involved psychology. Psychology obviously relates to human’s, so it was neat to put it into a different perspective, because I got to look at 4 and 5 year olds, to see how the subjects that we were recently discussing in class, pertained to them particularly. Children learn very quickly, at a young age so I had a great opportunity to see that first hand. It was neat to relate all of the things I learned in class, to the actual students I was observing.…

    Today we take in all sorts of animals, and take care of them until they can be released back into the wild or we find a good home for them. My future with animals does not only exist at home, my junior year of high school I had to do an apprenticeship for my animal science class as part of FFA. My love and knowledge of animals caused me to make the decision of apprenticing at a veterinary clinic, where I would soon learn just how deep my urge to help and love animals goes. After my week of apprenticing there was over, I realized what I wanted to do with my life, I wanted to become a veterinary technician. Now, I volunteer at Walker Street Veterinary Clinic Monday through Thursday at 3:30pm to 5:30pm. I do this to not only prepare myself for my future in college and in the workforce, but also because of my passion for…

    One of the better-known benefits of volunteering is the impact on the community. Unpaid volunteers are often the glue that holds a community together. Volunteering allows you to connect to your community and make it a better place. However, volunteering is a two-way street, and it can benefit you and your family as much as the cause you choose to help. Dedicating your time as a volunteer helps you make new friends, expand your network, and boost your social skills.…
