Statement Of Purpose: Saving American Veterans
One of my most beloved volunteering experiences happened through a program that helps celebrate American Veterans, the program is named Corvettes for Vets. I have happily served my community through this event every year since my Freshman year. During this program I help to establish a clean and peaceful environment; I enjoy serving my community and I especially enjoy serving those who have fought to ensure the freedoms I enjoy daily.

    Although, the volunteer work is part of the requirements for the Honors program, it is a way of life for me.

    Summary: The Importance Of Honoring Veterans

    It is important to keep honoring our veterans because they have sacrificed so much for this country. Also we honor them because we need to tell them how appreciative we are of their dutiful service to our country. Even the president honors our veterans. Each year the president or one of his representatives lays a wreath on The Tomb of The Unknown Soldiers in the Arlington Cemetery every Veterans Day to honor those veterans. Even though the first unknown soldier was laid to rest there on Armistice day on the year of 1921 this ceremony still continues. This is one way that shows just how important honoring our veterans…

    Hydrocephalus Association Analysis

    Volunteering for service hours changed my outlook on life. I worked with the Hydrocephalus Association in both eleventh and twelfth grade. The Hydrocephalus Association focuses on three things community, clarity, and cure. Hydrocephalus is a condition defined by an abnormal, excessive accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) within the cavities of the brain. Some people with this condition can live a normal life being unnoticeable while other have difficulties. The association works on awareness to find a cure, clarity in helping families further understand the condition, and a community which will always be supportive. Service hours can sometimes be a hassle but once I started volunteering with that association it became fun because I was…

    American Legion: Personal Statement Of Purpose

    Last summer, I endeavored a life changing experience. American Legion Buckeye Boys State is a leadership program. It is the best Boys State program in the nation. On top of this, it is among the top programs for leadership, growth, and is a meeting of the greatest minds of Ohio, and by proxy, of the nation. But it’s so much more than that. From Day One, the minute you step off the bus, it instantly becomes an incredible experience. Everyone, people who have never even met before, are shaking everyone else’s hands, introducing themselves, and campaigning for positions before anyone has even dropped their luggage off. It was breathtaking, truly, and it made me realize that I too had to step up. Naturally, I did just that. I started meeting people,…

    Personal Narrative: Mountain Brook Community

    Have you had any volunteer experiences and, if so, what did you like about participating? Give at least one example of what you liked. I have volunteered with Canterbury United Methodist Church on a mission trip and the Birmingham Zoo. When I volunteered with Canterbury, we went on a mission trip to Asheville, North Carolina for a week during the summer. I had the opportunity to travel to another city, in a different state, to help those who are less fortunate and live in harsh conditions. Seeing the harsh conditions that some people live in was very eye-opening for me because it really made me realize how fortunate, not only I, but the rest of my community is. I loved helping the people in Asheville because I knew that it is something they…

    Being A Veteran Essay

    Have you ever considered the hard work our soldiers went through to keep our country safe, and how hard they had to work to protect us from danger? Have you ever thought of what a Veteran really is? Many thoughts race through my head when I hear the word Veteran, and I’m sure that in the past you’ve heard the word Veteran more than once. The Veteran may have been one of your teachers or even someone on a local news station, but have you ever considered what being a Veteran really means? To me, being a Veteran means you are someone who is brave, kind, and much more. Veterans selflessly defend the country that we call our home, and without them, life couldn’t be the same. The many wars they’ve fought for us and all of the time Veterans put into keeping out invaders or possible threats, allowed the United States of America to grow. They were and still are the building blocks that made the Land of Freedom flourish.…

    The Importance Of Honoring Veterans

    For most Americans, we honor our veterans because they served us to be free and without them we wouldn't be free in our country. But why? Why do we honor our veterans years after they're done serving. We need to honor them because they fought and worked hard for friends, family, and country. To me, if we don't honor our veterans it would be heartbreaking to the veterans that made our country free. Also, since we are free we can have our own beliefs and not believe in something that someone else does, and have our own rights so we can do what we want to do. Thank you to all veterans that served for our country so we can be free.…

    Personal Essay: The Importance Of Veterans Day

    It’s just my opinion, but Veterans Day is very important. It’s important because, veterans risked everything in their lives to fight for us. They helped us gain freedom. Today they still fight for us. Most of them don’t want to leave their families behind and sometimes they don’t make it back home. It’s very important to show them that we care for them and we are grateful for them, so therefore we give this day. We have to give them our love and respect because if it wasn’t for them we’d be lost…

    Essay On Veterans Health Care

    While health policy may seem nebulous and difficult to grasp for some, we can see the actions that transpire from implementation of health care policy every day. An example of policy in action is the Department of Veteran’s Affairs. The Department of Veteran’s Affairs operates many programs that assist returning service members and service member leaving the military with different programs to ease their transition back into civilian life. The Department of Veterans Affairs also runs a health care organization that is inefficient and untimely in providing care, but often the only access to care for many veterans. This essay will attempt to review some of the current issues in veterans’ health care delivery, how policy relates and results in…

On this day, I had the privilege of spending time with some of the kindest people I have ever met.…
