I sell newspapers to raise money for the Santa fund
Community service has always been an important part of my life. I have been involved in various community service efforts through my elementary school, high school, and church. I am currently a member of the Quinnipiac club Community Service Ambassadors in which we strive to serve both our local and national community through fundraisers and events to raise awareness of community service opportunities.
I am participating in this inspiring project to encourage everyone to see the good in the world, not only in the positive times, but more importantly in times of chaos, tragedy, and struggle. I choose to believe in the good in people and in the world, and I hope everyone else will too!

I like to make people laugh, it's bit always easy to comfort people but cheering them up is fun.
This seems like a cool way to prevent evil.
I buy gift cards for grocery stores and give them to homeless people. I teach kids how to art. I foster dogs who are waiting for homes. I teach unemployed moms and senior citizens computer skills.
Because I did something stupid when I was 18 and have been treated differently for over a decade based on a label. I've dealt with being denied jobs, being denied friendships, having my work and kindness dismissed, all over the discovery of one little word.

I volunteered at Rocking Horse Rehab, a pediatric rehabilitation and family wellness center focused on equine assisted therapies known as Hippotherapy. There, I assisted with various approaches to rehabilitation, celebrated progress and reevaluated relapses, treating children with a wide range of medical conditions. One of the greatest joys in working with these children with special needs was observing the progress the horses could engender. Each relationship between child and horse is unique and acts as an impetus for success, motivating the child to work hard to achieve his goals.
