For my community service story, I would like to focus on the local senior center, which provides dollar lunches, bingo, parties, and other fun activities for seniors in the surrounding area. The center is a great space for seniors who need a place to spend their days. It is also a great place to meet new people and chat with friends. However, the senior center is in danger of closing because of lack of funding, so I might use this for my conflict story instead.

Other ideas I have for my community service story include two after school programs, which offer free tutoring for local students from kindergarten to the twelfth grade at the local library. Another community service organization I located, called El Puente, offers activities, which are meant to empower local teens through the arts.

Because of my experience writing my small business story (where I had interviewees back out last minute), I thought it would be a good idea to have a wide range of ideas. The senior center and youth-focused organizations both offer great services to the community for little to no cost, which is why I think all of them would make great stories.
