Volunteering

  • I have volunteered at many places and displayed many valuable jobs and have exceeded the expectations that was required from me. At the clinic I was a Medical Receptionist for 3 years along with helping the patients. At the San Diego Food Bank, I helped package groceries for people who need it and at that one day that I volunteered along with many other volunteers, we helped package 11,000 groceries and we have donated them to the needy. I have also volunteered at a Beach Cleanup in San Diego because two of my classmates and I was working on a project given by the College Board which was about Water as this project required us to volunteer somewhere related to water and help raise awareness about water contamination that is negatively affecting us globally.
