A major problem in the city of Rochester is that people can’t afford glasses. 73% of people are poor in the city of Rochester and can’t afford glasses. Prescription glasses can cost more than $300 a pair! Some people live their lives not being able to see, but they deserve to. Kids in schools are unable to see the chalkboard or read their homework that’s posted on the bulletin board. They want to succeed, but they just can’t see the board or read their homework. What if someone’s in the car and can’t read a sign or tell when the light turned red.

I am helping the need in health care. Problems include medical insurance, obesity, abuse, neglect, proper proventative care, knowledge of nutrition etc.. problems are being solved by offering my own knowledge and compassion to patients while assisting licensed health car providers. I am also assisting with my personal experiences in fitness and nutrition and the way to treat your body and how to stay healthy. I encourage patients to keep their heads up and to do all they can to help save their lives as well. their health is in their own hands too.

I'm trying to solve the problem of self esteem on gang violence and one on one violence. I'm trying to solve the actions being taken place in my community. The community I live in is just so unsafe for me and for other families. I'm just tired of the actions and the non belief of loss of self help in my community!
