On Saturday the 17th, i went to Forest Park along with about 11 others from the learning community to volunteer for Light the Night. Light the Night is a walk to help find a cure for blood cancers. At first, i felt it was going to be a long day, but afterwards I found my prediction to be very wrong. For me, it turned into a very fulfilling day, one that may get to volunteer at more events like this one. I didn’t feel this way until a lady came to register with her family and expressed how thankful she was that we came out in this weather to help out with some so close to their hearts. It made me feel good, as well as put forth a stronger effort the rest of the night to make these people have the best night possible. I wish that as a group we could do more activities such as this one, which not only reaps rewards for ourselves, but helps us create a stronger bond with each other.
