Feed My Starving Children

471 Words2 Pages

In order to be confirmed at my church there is a required amount of service hours. Church leaders plan two or three Wednesday night service events so that we could get some of the hours done. It is a nice way to get out of the church to go and help people in the community. Service is done all voluntarily so that no one feels forced to go out and do it. One place in particular that I love going back to is Feed My Starving Children (FMSC). Going and serving has taught me that my needs are not that important and that serving others is needed to build characters and helps society as a whole.
FMSC packs food for countries that are hit by disasters or just in need of food because of lack of resources. There is no government funding so everything

  • Essay On Service To The National Honor Society

    When I was just a brownie, Girl Scouts was mostly about getting the prettiest patches for my sash and selling the most boxes of cookies, but over the years it has evolved into a much more meaningful activity. At the end of middle school and the start of high school, we did events such as preparing and serving meals at the Branford soup kitchen and organizing crafts for visits to the Ronald McDonald house in New Haven. Both of these events have greatly broadened my understanding of service to the community. While doing fundraisers or various drives are of unparalleled importance, literally interacting with the people my service is aimed to help allowed me to understand how donating a small fraction of time can be a way to try and better someone else’s day. Our troop has also been involved in other projects like fundraising for the local foundation Hope For Raptors, a group dedicated to protecting native birds and educating the community about them.
