My Volunteer Paper

Within seconds of receiving the handout for this essay my mind begin to race with ideas of who I would help, how I would help them and why. Unfortunately the thought “when” never seemed to cross my mind. Even though I love helping out others and enjoy volunteering my time I couldn’t find the time or charity to assist, until I attended the service fair at Collin College, which actually made me even more confused than before. Between animal care, big sister programs and helping children with special needs I was at a complete lost. Then I saw the Life Talk table, I was immediately interested in what services they offered especially since I used to volunteer at a free clinic in High School. Once I arrived at the table I was instantly greeted by an enthusiastic blonde woman who was very excited to explain to me what exactly Life Talk was. After hearing her explanation I knew exactly where I wanted to devote my time. Unfortunately it took me so long to figure out where I wanted to volunteer that by the time I discovered Life Talk, I was hired at The Gap which had completely taken over my Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday’s not to mention the fact that I was in class until 5:15 every day and Life Talk closed at 4. Even though volunteering there began to seem next to impossible, I was still curious about Life Talk, what they did and how they helped people in need, so I decided to go to Life Talk and learn more about the facility and the people.

This is on the first paragraph of my essay to read go to the link underneath Pages at the top of my blog.
