Hey Everyone,
For the future, I would definitely love to connect with my community in the future. Some of the things I might do is volunteer at the public library where I live because I have a tendency to spend a huge amount of time there. I also feel as if I volunteer, it helps everyone not just a small group of people. I would also try to help out at my old church because I haven't gone there since my Grandmum died and would like to reconnect there in some way, shape, or form.
I would like to experience more of what I did this term. I did enjoy myself, more so at the food pantry, but I did thoroughly enjoy my time at the Warming Shelter. I liked the Warming Shelter, but at times I did feel as if there wasn't much for me to do. All that was required of me to do was put food out and ask those who left early if they wanted a breakfast bag. I felt like I was wasting my time, but I knew I was helping out in some way. The people there were kind and they had me laughing despite the fact that it was 6:30 in the morning. I would also like to engage in some other way. I think what would fit me best is helping autistic kids because my little sister is autistic so it would be something close to my heart. Or I would love to travel over to England to help volunteer over there because eventually that's where I want to live. I know plenty of charities that help out those who struggle, but I would love to volunteer somewhere. Maybe I'll do something during the summer. I don't know where I'll be charity or volunteer wise, but I will continue helping out!
It's been a good term!
