Wood Club Reflection
Throughout high school, I have been a member of my school's branch of KEY Club. KEY Club has been an excellent club to be a part of, as it has allowed me to take part in various activities in my local community. As a member, I have been a part of promoting all our fundraisers, such as food and shoe drives, and have been a viable member known for my high standards of excellence and dedication. From my membership in this organization, I was inspired to initiate my own service project in order to play a bigger role in the success of KEY Club. In June of 2016, several students and I started collaborating to initiate our own returnable can and bottle drive. Since then, we have went to several community events and neighborhoods, as well as the local

    Key Club Community Analysis

    After being a part of Key Club throughout my high school years, I learned how to give back to the community that has raised me and the conspicuous impact I can have in someone’s life simply through volunteering. Through Key Club, I help create service projects with local organizations and give members of our club an opportunity to volunteer and give back. One experience I will never forget is helping set up a blood drive in school with one of our local organizations, Bloodworks Northwest, a local blood bank that helps saves lives through research, innovation and education in blood. Our Key Club had to inform the school of the event that was happening, and encourage students to donate blood. It required hours of creating posters, informing the…

    Toys for Tots

    Three years ago my friend Amy and I were looking for a way to bring customers into Behm’s Sawdust City while helping the community. After about a month of throwing ideas around Amy came across an advertisement for Toys for Tots, and we decided that this would be a great way to bring people in and help the community. Little did we know that it would be a huge success! Every year we have had to become more organized. The first time we get together we decide on what band we are going to try and book and where we are going to ask for donations. Next we split up and go to different businesses and individuals that have donated in the past or may want to donate this year. Finally we advertise for the dance and start looking for volunteers to help.…

    Personal Narrative: My Experience With FBLA

    For the past 2 years I have been a member of FBLA, also known as Future Business Leaders of America. I have been under the guidance of Mrs. Gabel, Mr. Shrader, and Mrs. Smith through these last couple of years, and they have been an important part of my experience with FBLA. Through their influence, they encouraged me to volunteer through different means, such as the food drive and helping with concession stands. I volunteer my time because it helps out the community and helps those who are in need. The concession stands also were not required, but if you wanted to help fundraise, you would be helping out the local chapter. The food drive is where different members of our local chapter of FBLA gathered together, and collected extra food that people didn’t need.…

    National Honors Society Induction Essay

    Bringing people together encouraging human unity is a gift. Participating in service demonstrates that a person cares for others. There is no measurement for service to society, it is what helps to make the world a better place. I provide service regularly at my church, City Of Faith Church Of God. The congregation inspires me to give as much of me to them, as I possibly can. Working at. The church food pantry brings me joy.feeding citizens who are without the basics, food, and seeing the look of relief on their faces is one of the greatest experiences. Additionally, preparing for the culmination of "Child's Month Celebration" has been a lot of fun. Designing the logo based on the theme of "Be A Winner and Join The Race" was a fulfilling role. As a nominee of the National Honors Society , my mind overflows with ideas of how we can serve in our community. Some tasks we can fulfill include visiting the elderly. I am certain that they would appreciate and enjoy us going to read and/or listen them. Helping to clean our school environment would also be a good use of our service. In addition, I believe that academic tutoring from members of the Honors Society to students at NFA, other schools in the district, and the public library would be very useful and effective. Our service is important and would be very effective in our…

    Civic Engagement Paper

    The Food Bank was the perfect place to offer our services and it was an honor to participate with my fellow peers on this particular volunteer experience. The staff and volunteers welcomed us with warm, open arms. Due to prior registration through one of our students, those arms were overly outstretched. As a class, we had an opportunity to participate in the packaging of the foods that were being donated to those families in need in the Houston area. It was our job to sort these foods in their designated containers. These containers needed to be separated for items such as canned foods, sweets, bottled drinks, and household items just to name a few. Before the rules of engagement were discussed, the people facilitating the whole movement provided us with general rules we needed to adhere to promote the overall experience. In this beginning, proper instruction was given to all concerning the Do’s and Don’ts of doing such a task. This task required us to be active, and to remain on our feet while adhering to a few rules. Ultimately, they wanted to make sure the process would be a smooth one. There were tons of boxes in the back, where we had to go and retrieve them, separating the contents in the bins. After the bins were filled up to the top, we now transferred them to on movable shelves that stacked bins into the back. This process ran smoothly and we had no problems assisting others. As time progressed, we had opportunities to get to know some of the participants when we stopped for lunch. Many of the volunteers who partook in this experience showed the same amount of willingness to help the community as the University of Houston-Victoria students. We all worked as a team and had a great time doing it.…

    What Is My Participation In National Honor Society

    Through this organization, I was given the opportunity to lead by way of volunteerism and school involvement, participating in over twenty-five hours of community service. I was able to work with organizations like Feed the Children, packaging and loading boxes with supplies for Sandy Hurricane Relief workers, as well as Kaboom, NIKE, and the Absentee Shawnee Tribe in a community playground build for Little Axe youth. I also worked to pick up trash around my neighborhood on two occasions, completing a total of ten hours of community service. At school I emptied recycle boxes of teachers at least once every two weeks and worked in NHS sponsored events like our annual Pi…

    Personal Narrative: Organizing My Blood Drive

    My first step for organizing my blood drive was contacting Shannon Metcalf, who is a Red Cross representative to establish a date, help determine how many donors to expect, and give tips for advertising. Once the date was cleared by my principle, we met. Shannon gave me the materials needed like posters, wristbands, parental signing forms, and information to set up my own online blood drive coordinator account, where all scheduled appointments must put in by me. Once the materials were received, posters were put up, announcements and social media advertisements were created. and then emails were sent out to the faculty members to inform them about the upcoming event. Everyday for month, my study hall was spent going classroom to classroom asking…

    Reflective Reflection

    Reflection allows an individual to identify the reasons or purpose of understanding the outcome of a particular situation in depth in term of emotions on thought and feeling on the topic area. In addition, Reflection is something that we do implicitly as part of being human, underpinning our identities through a process of negotiation between our sense of self and our experiences of others (Demetriou, 2000, p.210). Therefore, I have implemented this quote in my professional and personal goals I wanted and have achieved thought-out the process of the module. I have made continues effort in building my confidence in situations that I have felt uncomfortable in.…

    National Honor Society Reflection Paper

    Throughout my time as a part of National Honor Society and the entirety of my high school career, service has been the most important part of my experience. I have been required to participate in a small amount of service, but I have never felt as if it was enough. Because of this, I volunteer for many hours that exceed my requirements to give back to my community as often as possible. In pursuit of this achievement, I have worked on a variety of projects such as food and coat drives, children’s events, and habitat restoration projects. Each of these has given me something to take away from the experience and apply to my own life. Yet, one particular project has always had the greatest emotional impact on my life. This experience is Kenny’s…

    So far for my Graduation Project I have worked quite a bit communicating between people and trying to get events arranged. My graduation project is going to be on Geriatric Nursing and my product will be in two parts. First I will host a Blood Drive at Southwood Nursing Center on April 11th which I have already arranged with Southwood and the hospital in Clinton. Secondly I will gather items from church, family and friends to take to Southwood and be distributed among the residents. I became a certified CNA last semester and while doing my clinical I grew a deep bond between the residents there. Most have been placed there because families are unable to take care of their constant needs and many become neglected by family over time. I noticed while there that only a few of the residents received regular visits from family or friends. Our healthcare system simply cannot afford the necessities that people need at times and many times there is a under stock of items like soap and deodorants. The second part of my product will include taking up these types of items and distributing them. Items will include toiletries such as soaps, deodorants, toothpaste and toothbrushes, razors and brushes as well as items that help keep them occupied such as books and puzzles. And of course blankets are included because the anatomy of a geriatric patient keeps them cold constantly. I believe that this project will not only be beneficial to me and my grade but will also be beneficial to the residents who are deeply in need. My mentor is a RN in the community and someone who has been in the field for over 25 years. She is extremely knowledgeable on the topic and even worked in a long term facility for years. The staff at Southwood are friends of mine and are very supportive of my project and have even agreed for the living room of the facility to be the venue of the blood drive. Although abuse in these types of facilities is common I have found that the staff at Southwood are very…

As a single competitor coming from the small town of Lennox, I had come out of regions placing 19th in which the top twenty-five make the cut. As a seventh grader, the feelings of competing at an event like this was overwhelming, and, overall, I had no idea what I would be getting myself into.…

    Key Club Observation Report

    At Lincolnton High School there is a limited amount of club activity going on, however, I reach out to all of the clubs to explore the opportunities they could provide. I have dedicated the most of my time and efforts to the school’s Key Club, the high school branch of the local Kiwanis Club. What originally drew me to the Key Club was its dedication to serving the people of the Lincolnton High School community. Quickly, I was enveloped in the various club projects and was then elected my junior year as vice president and then my senior year as president. The creativity I was allowed to pour into the club resulted in many positive influences in the community and opened new doors to future charitable opportunities.…

    Social Work Narrative Statement

    Key Club is an organization of young people who volunteer to help different establishments. During my junior year in high school, I was the junior board member and I had the opportunity to help each of the juniors who were involved with Key Club. When I started attending the University of New Mexico, I began to work towards becoming a chaperone. I have volunteered at the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta, The Weems Art-Fest, Light the Night, the JDRF Walk to Cure Diabetes, Big Brothers and Big Sisters, and many other great organizations. I have volunteered in donations and fundraisers for the needy. I wanted to join Key Club because I enjoy learning about the…
