Community Service

To me, community service is taking time out to help others in need without getting paid for it. The idea is to get something out of it other than a financial gain. After doing some community service most people feel like it changed their outlook on life and realize things they didn’t see before. The type of community service I did a few years ago was help out at a church. I used to be an altar server every Sunday at church. It was a good experience because it made me go to church which kept me good spirited but I don’t feel like i gained much from it. When I have the chance to do community service again I want to work in a soup kitchen or somewhere like that. I feel like working with the less fortunate will put things into perspective for me. Coming out of working in a place like a soup kitchen will make me really appreciate what I have and things I take for granted. I look forward to doing something like that since I haven’t done it yet and I’ve heard it is a small life-changer. So yeah, i wonder where our freshman seminar class is going to do community service.
