Going to the Club Carnival during orientation day, was really overwhelming. There were so many clubs to join, and the leaders there wanted to drag you to their table and try to convince you to join theirs. Still lost and scared of college, I decided I was not going to join any, and as I was leaving the carnival, I found the UNICEF Club. It immediately caught my attention, due to the fact that I always follow what the United Nations does and I am really interested in working for the United Nations in a future. Finding this club was enlightening, and I signed up with them. I later went to the first GIM, and I loved what the Club does at Baruch.
In short, they fund-raise, organize events and raise awareness of what UNICEF’s role is as a United Nations committee. Once I joined the club, I joined the Events and Fundraising committee. I immediately felt the feeling of inclusion, and found people who had similar interests as me. As soon as the first meeting started, I realized that this club is active, and there are several events that need to be organized. I was excited, and looking forward to it.
The board members of the club are really nice people, they are all seniors, which means, their board seats may be available next year, which makes me think about showing leadership and learning as much as I can from them, to see if I can hold a seat for next year. We are working. Urgently in the Halloween batch what will take place during Cl
ub Hours and is a type of celebration. Finally, I can say that this club is going to help me out to survive at Baruch because I found people with shared interests, and I also found a place to develop skills while doing what I like, for an organization I really admire.
