This fall break, I decided to make hygiene kits for troubled teens, and it was an enriching experience. I gathered supplies like soap, shampoo, toothpaste, deodorant, and sanitary products, ensuring each kit would be comprehensive and valuable. I felt a sense of community discussing the importance of mental health and kindness. By the end of the day, I had a stack of bright, cheerful kits ready to be donated to local shelters. Knowing that my small effort could bring a smile to someone’s face made all the work worthwhile.

I spent the day baking cookies that were given out to kids at a drop off point and I really enjoy baking so it was something I enjoy and something for a good cause all in one.

The experience I had volunteering at the food bank was something that changed my outlook. I thought to myself how lucky I am to always have food on the table. I felt so good the rest of the day after that I felt like I helped the community. I felt connected with myself and society. Overall it was a great experience.
