Community Service

In my opinion, community service is taking out time to donate your service to benefit your community or the public.  It is a great way to give back to your neighborhood without getting paid for it, by doing small things like cleaning up a park, or helping out at a local nursing home. It can also help you better yourself, I’ve heard of people say they get satisfaction out of helping others, I know it is true because community service has also bettered myself. I personally am familiar with doing community service because in my high school in order to graduate it was mandatory to complete 90 hours of service. So for the past 4 years I have done over 90 hours of service.  I used to be an alter server at church, which was good because I would attend church more often than I would if I had not alter served.  On top of that I was a teachers assistant at my old middle school for kindergarten and first grade.  Also I participated my time at small events in my high school such as ushering at plays and helping out at parties and open school nights. And I am looking forward to doing community service with my FRO class soon!
