I also i help my younger sister with girl scout things, such as watching her as she goes door to door selling cookies, and sometimes i participate in helping clean up areas that are replete with litter and other garbage. I also donate my old, lightly used clothes to those who need them since i don’t need them anymore.
A few JROTC lessons that helped me prepare for my service to others were the cold weather injuries lesson and the service learning project lesson. The cold weather injuries lesson helped me identify the beginning symptoms of frostbite in my ears, toes, and fingers. The service learning project lesson helped me because i identified a problem within my community, i made a plan on how to deal with the problem, and i went and tried to solve it by picking up garbage and litter that are in the parks and rivers around my community.
In my service to others, i learned that helping others makes you feel good as a person, and it helps someone in your community who needs it. The people who needed help were grateful for the help i provided. These services that i did also helped me feel like I had become a better person, because i felt i had helped someone in my community who was in need of help. These services to others also helped me occupy time I would be sitting around, doing nothing on a normal day.
To sum up, JROTC helped me in my service to others because it helped me identify how i could help others, different ways i could help people, and what helping others did to me as a person.
