“Help others and give something back.
I guarantee you will discover that while public service improves the lives and
the world around you, its greatest reward is the enrichment and new meaning it
will bring your own life.”
- Arnold Schwarzenegger
At
first I was going to cook pulled pork for a veterans BBQ at the Veteran’s
Village, but then my boss accidentally scheduled me to work on the day of the
BBQ. So I ended up signing up to give holiday gifts to homeless veterans at
the Veteran’s Village. I love helping people in need and I am in Army ROTC and
I will be an Army Officer in about 3 years. Homeless veterans are in constant
need and they served our country and deserve to be treated as honored veterans.
Some of these homeless veterans were heros and have not even been recognized
for the heroism that they have done. The Veteran’s Village temporarily houses
these homeless veterans that are in need. For this service project I bought two
$15 fast food gift cards, one was to Wendy’s and the other was to Taco Bell. I
hope that these men and women enjoy their christmas gifts and I hope that they
can get back on their feet and maybe even help other homeless veterans in need
someday.
