The Problem

Sometime the public is ignorant to how children feel because everyday isn't a counseling session; however, at the YMCA Stamford, I got a chance to connect with a group of children and to vicariously connect with what was bothering them. By providing activities of their partial choice, I had the best opportunity and experience with these kids.

Plan of Action

I devote every one of my days to community service. Little and large acts, I feel, affects how a person develops. One of my school's mission is to help others help themselves. I believe in this since only the self can change the self. And I am more than happy to aid in that change.
