My softball team and I volunteered with an organization called Red Door and went door to door handing out food to people in need during the holidays.

For this job I was required to watch two young girls from the evening into the night. My responsibilities were to make sure the girls ate, put their pajamas on, brushed their teeth, and I had to read to them before bed.

My softball team at the University of Memphis volunteered to work with the Nobody Trashes Tennessee organization and we walked around our campus and picked up trash in small groups and we worked together to clean up our campus and the community of Memphis.

At softball camps us players are placed in different stations and we help out the campers with whatever station that we are working. So if we are in the throwing station we help them with throwing techniques, if we are working on bunting we will teach them different ways to bunt and the right mechanics of bunting, and the same goes with hitting and defense, we teach them skills based on the level that they are at.

Once a week myself and all of the other people that worked with this company would meet in a parking lot where the delivery truck would drop off all of the farmers market groceries. We would fill our orders that we had for that week and then I would take all of my orders are drop them off at each persons house.
