Volunteering

  • Before I got my first job, I gained experience by doing volunteer work at the Salvation Army over the course of five years. I remembered doing volunteer work at the Biloxi Kroc Corps Community Center where I helped do a food drive. I would put boxes and cans of food into a bag and then load it onto a truck. I would also do holiday events for Easter and Christmas at the center where I help set up the event and serve breakfast.
