I have volunteered at numerous food banks across different communities, primarily through mission trips with my youth group. These experiences have allowed me to connect with people from diverse backgrounds and contribute to meaningful service efforts. While assisting at food banks, I consistently brought a positive attitude and helped foster an encouraging and team-oriented work environment. I took initiative when needed, stayed flexible in fast-paced situations, and made sure tasks were completed efficiently. I also communicated clearly and respectfully with both my peers and members of the local community, ensuring everyone felt seen, heard, and supported. Volunteering in this way has strengthened my leadership, collaboration, and interpersonal skills, and deepened my passion for serving others.
In addition to my work with food banks, I have also babysat, where I was responsible for preparing meals, helping the child get ready for bed, and making sure they got home safely from the bus stop. These experiences have taught me to be responsible, patient, attentive to the needs of others and helped me learn how to communicate in a professional manner.
