Desired was created in August of 2006 as a result of a camp experience I had. The summer of 2006 I was a camp counselor at Camp Good News and spent my time reaching out to young girls, mostly ages 10 to 15, and teaching them about Jesus and his love for them. I came home wanting the experience to continue! I took a look around and saw that there were plenty of girls in my youth group who needed a "big sister" or a mentor in their lives to help them learn how to follow the Lord in everyday life and most importantly to help them understand his incredible love for them!

I am currently volunteering at a brand new community resource home titled the House of Hope. The House of Hope of Ocean County, Inc. is a non-profit, interfaith organization which assists individuals and families achieve and sustain self-sufficiency. Our program is based on the belief that everyone needs sufficient money, relationships, and meaning in their lives to thrive.

Description:
Students will participate in a Toronto-area Ultimate Frisbee league. Ultimate Frisbee is played with a Frisbee, with the aim of scoring in an end zone through a series of short passes. The sport has no referees and thus a very strong emphasis on sportsmanship, honesty and “spirit of the game.” Ultimate Frisbee is an increasingly popular sport, with many high school, university, touring and national teams already well established.

Youth Inspiring Action is a non-profit organization dedicated to youth networking to help each other organize and initiate projects.
This project, Leadership 8.5 is for eighth grade students in the summer before grade nine to develop some leadership skills (and build on ones they would have learned in Leadership 7-8 if they were a part of that program), to meet and bond with some mentors from local high schools, and have some fun in a safe, friendly environment in those summer days when there isn't much to do.
