Within my life i’ve done more than just help myself. Within the Baruch community, I help my classmates by helping them with say, math homework, or whatever they need help with. However, where I am most helpful is with the community on Long Island.
On Long Island, in Suffolk County, in Selden, my life is personified by helping people I am friends with. People who I’ve been friends with are people who rely on me for more than just a person to hang out with. They rely on me for advice, a helping hand, and a shoulder to lean on. It is fortunate for both them and me that I have the ability to go back every weekend.
Besides helping my friends, I have also help my family through going home to babysit my younger brother while both of my parents go to work. During my free time back home, I also volunteer at my local church, doing things such as making peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for the homeless, working at the local soup kitchen, and most recently helping some friends out with teaching a class.
With Baruch though, I hope to further increase my effect on the community. I plan on joining one of the clubs in the college and through that, help the whole community more. It is because of the numerous clubs in this institute that I have a hard time deciding which one I want to join. There are too many factors to base it off of and It is because of the amount of community service that each of these clubs do that sets them apart from other colleges clubs.
