I babysit for my aunt Jessica when she needs it. I usually babysit for her four year old and seven year old, or one or the other. I love to play catch outside with them, and I also watch shows of their choice with them. If I think the house needs to be tidied, I play music and have them clean with me. Sometimes they want to argue or fight each other, but I always make sure to break it up and try to get them to come up with a solution that benefits both of them.

• Assisted with special events and programs.

Our Lady of Sorrows School was the school I used to attend until I graduated. I volunteered there to help with the eighth grade dance that they have yearly. They usually have the seventh graders act as waiters who take drink orders, clean up tables, and help do other tasks, but the eighth grade class had around 25 students, and there were only seven seventh graders. I volunteered to help since they needed it, and I socialized with tables and helped when it was needed.

Once every month, I would volunteer at the food pantry for service hours. I thought I would dislike it, but I ended up loving helping out. I would help move the many boxes and organize the food, handing out food, and helping people load their bags into their cars. I loved talking with people, and making sure they got what they needed.
