Ethical Legacy
My Ethical Legacy to the World
In my opinion, one of the activities has a positive impact on the work ethic that is voluntary. Every year, I participate in volunteer activities each summer or in the spare time. My friend and I have organized the charity work; participate in community activities and work actively to protect the environment.
We have organized clubs such as teaching charity for poor children who cannot afford to go to school in the neighboring provinces, building compassion for the poor and gatherings were held on special occasions particularly for children(such as mid-autumn festival and international children's day). We build and do many activities such as selling newspapers, books, souvenirs handmade and sale them. All benefits in the activities will be contributed to buying your textbooks for poor students learn. These jobs helped me more pleasure, relieve the stress of learning hours at school, and bring joy to your child.
In addition, I am also actively involved in environmental protection which is energy saving, waste sorting, k littering in public places. Keeping the environment green and clean more. It's just little things, but it also contributes to the reduction of illiteracy rate in Vietnam, help for the poor people who are disadvantaged, they have to earn their living hard to get the food out daily.
In volunteering, I remember that activity "the exam season" and "Relay to school." It is an organization of volunteer team: consultants, candidates and help the candidates about where to eat, stay, and travel, venues and guide to the exam registration process, keeping participants security and order, traffic safety in college entrance exam scores at the school. And organize activities "to the 2013 Relay" with the contents: admissions guidelines; selected industries, consulting, search the motel, etc to support the students; first-year students enter the school.
I think that volunteer activities are an activity most meaningful to me.

    I am highly concerned about giving back to my school and community at large. By helping out at church picnics and fundraisers, I learned to organize and focus on the task at hand. When I volunteered at the food bank, I was able to cooperate with others and be useful. While working with kids at Ralph Down, I was able to grow my communication skills and got more exposure to growing minds. These variety of ways have helped me excel in becoming a solid member of the community.…

    Volunteering for service hours changed my outlook on life. I worked with the Hydrocephalus Association in both eleventh and twelfth grade. The Hydrocephalus Association focuses on three things community, clarity, and cure. Hydrocephalus is a condition defined by an abnormal, excessive accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) within the cavities of the brain. Some people with this condition can live a normal life being unnoticeable while other have difficulties. The association works on awareness to find a cure, clarity in helping families further understand the condition, and a community which will always be supportive. Service hours can sometimes be a hassle but once I started volunteering with that association it became fun because I was…

    Personally, I have been involved in my community since I was in the Boy Scouts of America. As I acsended through to the top rank of Boy Scouts known as an Eagle Scout, many projects were conducted. For example, I have planned and conducted my own Eagle Scout project in 2009; this project consisted of building a roof for my local firehouse. Other community service includes roadside clean-ups, annual earth day events, and fellow Eagle Scout projects. Since my community college career, I have been well involved with our campus and community. Particularly in Phi Theta Kappa, the national honor society of all community colleges, where I have become the President of our chapter.

    A particular activity that stood out to me the most was the burrito project. Living pretty close to downtown LA I frequent visits there. I’ve witnessed homeless people asking for help and it hurt knowing that I could not do anything to help at the time. Until one day I came across the Burrito Project. I brought upon an idea to the club that we should help out the homeless. During the wintertime we all met at a church in Pasadena to prep the materials. At the church we make the burritos, it was considered the main meal for them. After making the burritos…

    From this activity I have learn that just attending university and receiving grades is not all that is required to attaining a future with a pleasant job. Volunteering and work experience are also necessary, therefore, I would consider joining a volunteer or work opportunity while attending university. The next step I am going to take toward my preferred future is to obtain a job, I will do this by applying to jobs that require communicating with people, working with children or opportunity for networking. Another step that I can take is to volunteer at my old high school, I have already worked at an elementary school, and therefore it would be nice to see if I would have a similar or dissimilar experience at the high…

    Relay For Life

    Taking care of my younger siblings while my parents were out at work, I taught my siblings valuable life lessons. Learning to love one another, to not get frustrated over little things, and teaching them how to cook. From there on I started to demonstrate my leadership throughout school. From family to school, I decided to set an example of a good samaritan at school. By picking up litter that others had left lying around the school and throwing it away, it helped bring a more positive environment towards the school setting. My commitment towards making a positive impact in the community began with joining Relay For Life, which is a fundraising opportunity towards cancer research. Relay For Life has made a positive impact in the community because the money fundraised goes towards finding a cure for cancer. I had also made a positive difference in the community, and even overseas, by packaging food for children in less developed countries with Feed My Starving…

    Here are some examples of my service to my community. During my 8th grade year in Elena Christian Jr. High School, both my classmates and I, we decided to do a beach cleanup. We chose the beach across from Water Gut. It was a wonderful experience because I was able to help out my community in a positive way. I volunteer and participate with the Junior Meteorology Club of Elena L. Christian Junior High School. I help with certain fundraisers such as; bake sales, car washes and collecting donations. I like to be there for people who are in need because it shows people that I am a caring and loving person. I also volunteered at the Agriculture Fair of 2010. I was helping out the Virgin Islands Police Department booth, assisting the police cadets, police officers, lieutenants and as well as the commissioner. Both my mom and I, we donated funds for Haiti at the VIPD in Frederiksted.…

    Volunteering has driven me to becoming a better person. It has taught me essential life skills that will follow my footsteps for the rest of my life.

I am grateful for the help I received from others. I have always been challenged by members of my community to go above and beyond the expectations. Without the extra push, I would not be where I am today.…

    Imagine… a ninety four year old man, resting in a chair on an oak wood porch at a beach house near the ocean. As he hears the seagulls cry and the salt water spray on his face, he wonders what legacy he will leave behind. Personally, he believes a legacy is what memories a person will leave behind. Additionally, a legacy is what people will think of a person once he or she has “passed on”. Will I be known as a friendly boss or employee? A well-behaved student? An exceptional friend? Near the end of my life, I wish to be a successful man. In addition, I would love to obtain an even more honorable legacy.…
