Personal Narrative: My Volunteering Experience At St. Mary Medical Center

410 Words2 Pages

My Volunteering Experience at St. Mary Medical Center It wasn’t for the volunteer hours needed for school or the need to do something. It was all about giving back to the community for me. I was born in India and I’ve seen the kind of condition people suffer to get through the day. Since then it has been my goal to make others smile, and just help them in any way possible.

On the first week of volunteering it was a bit intense for me, as I found it difficult and little bit sad to watch the women living the way they do, for some reason I felt that they were always missing their children and grandchildren. Some of the residents did not even have family so they never got visitations.
