Roleesha Rodwell and I, ironically, did the same nonprofit organization, The Salvation Army. However, our topics are very different. Roleesha pictures voices The Salvation Army as a whole, which is giving back, but my paper voices the awareness of domestic violence of the organization. Her concept of her paper is the organization is giving back to society, volunteering, and donations to support the ones in need. Both of our pictures express pathos, however, her picture makes people want to give back to the community, and my picture aware others about domestic violence.…

I have the experience of volunteering for two times. Both schools that I went to are very poor school as most of students come from neighbor countries such as Myanmar and Cambodia, whom their parents immigrate illegally to Thailand for working opportunity. Also the school director tries to help this children by give them opportunity to study without tuitions fee, which is make financial support from the government is not enough. Therefore, my friends and I went to give the necessary stuffs such as sport facilities and some amount of money that my friends and I did the donation from kind-hearted people.

The reason that I choose to teach them how to saving is I found that their family financial status is not good, so it is necessary for them to use money correctly and make sure that they will not overspending.…

You will read a bunch of letters that all consist of the exact same thing. They will either say how they feel like joining the Peace Corps will make them a better person, and how they really want to help others. But the truth is, everyone does and no doubt it will make you a better person or at least change your way of thinking. I am going to end up sitting here trying to convince you why you should accept my application to join the Peace Corps.. I will try to plead my case by saying how I grew up with a terrible background that involved emotional, and physical abuse, drugs, hospital, and prison visits and that is why I want to help others out by making it so they don’t have to grow up the way I did.…
This week, I had the opportunity to practice my personal helping approach with a volunteer client. For me, the role of helping individuals experiencing problems relating to their physical, emotional, psychological, or social health is constant facet of my daily life. My work as a mental health behavioral aide with adolescents ages twelve through twenty-one, who have co-occurring conditions, Autism Spectrum Disorder as well as a Mental Health Condition has allowed me to help students develop more socially acceptable behaviors, academic, social, emotional, and transitional skills. My role as a mental health behavioral aide within a therapeutic environment has given me the opportunity to develop a repertoire of skills for interacting with individuals…
My community service experience took place in my local area in Sylmar. I was volunteering at Angels of the Valley, which is a facility that they take care of seniors and patients. I assisted the administrator, she showed me a lot of things and explained what is her role in her job. I found this very interesting. I believe that community service and volunteerism like this are very important. By spending your free time helping others in their community, you can experience and learn new things like what I did in this facility by preparing and giving the patients right of medicine, cooking food for them, and supervise the whole facility.…
Modern social workers, unlike other professions ?often prioritize the needs of vulnerable populations when they engage in advocacy.? As they address and engage in social and political decision making, they adhere to the National Association of Social Works (NASW) Code of Ethics, which require them to engage in social and political action (Jansson, 2016). They participate actively in helping people to obtain rights, services, benefits and opportunities that they might not otherwise obtain through micro policy advocacy. Through community immersion, the social worker gains an understanding of the community attributes and desideratum. With such understanding, they will ?draw on their knowledge, values and skills to help people in need and to…
