Why do you volunteer?

I always feel better knowing that I have helped someone, even if only in the smallest way.

Have you seen or felt an impact from your volunteer work?

Yes. I like to volunteer with kids because they will tell you just how much you have helped them and how excited they are that you are there.

How does it benefit your college education?

I meet all sorts of people that I would not normally meet; making connections that will help me professionally.

How would you encourage other college students to become involved in community service?

Many college students see volunteering as something that just takes up time, but it is so much more than that. Volunteering makes you feel so much better and allows you to reach out to your community and make a difference.
