Community service has always been a regular part of my life. I was very active in high school in many of the clubs and participated in volunteer organizations and internships over the summer. I joined many clubs such as the ECO club, give aid give hope and red cross club. I heavily participated in most of the events of these clubs. There would be annual events every year such as the Breast Cancer Walk and AIDS walk. I see the community service requirements held by Baruch not as a nuisance but an opportunity to make my self better and get to know my community more. In many of these clubs I had a leadership role that may involve simple tasks such as collecting money to a more grand task such as organizing an event. I also participated in volunteering outside of school. I joined a political internship over the summer promoting political awareness and the importance of voting. Volunteering outside of school gave me i higher sense of responsibility. I was not doing this for college applications but to build my character. Through these events i met new people, developed leadership skills and learned something new everyday. I want to possess these same characteristic throughout my college years in Baruch and the honors program. This quality of leadership is a necessity in today’s world of cut throat business, something that I want to pursue in life.
