As a student, I have participated in a many programs that give back to the local community. I look forward to being a healthcare professional that is involved in the local community I work in.
A few of the programs I have been able to be a part of are:
- Toys For Tots of Dekalb County
- The primary goal of Toys for Tots is to deliver, through a new toy at Christmas, a message of hope to less fortunate youngsters that will assist them in becoming responsible, productive, patriotic citizens.
- I volunteered in 2008, 2009, & 2010.
- Volunteer with Meals on Wheels
- The goal of this program is to deliver meals to individuals at home who are unable to purchase or prepare their own meals.
- I volunteered in 2007, 2008, & 2009.
- Volunteer with Miracle League
- This is a baseball league that provides kids with cognitive and/or physical challenges an opportunity to play baseball.
- I volunteered in 2017.
- Volunteer Outreach Athletic Pre-Participation Physicals
- The goal of these events were to provide cheap and convenient physicals to high school athletes in rural locations who do not have easy access to services to be examined prior to playing in a sport.
