Please reflect on your future, where do you see yourself in 5 years? 10 years?

Where do I even begin? I started TEEP when I was a raising 7th grader. I was really hesitate on going because it was somewhere out of my comfort zone. I didn’t know anyone who was going or what the program was really about. My first year at TEEP was an experience I will never forget. I met new friends and I stepped out of my confront zone. Then for my raising 9th grade yea TEEP benefitted me by helping me open my eyes to things I would of never taken the chance to explore. TEEP has helped me understand the full meaning of reciprocity and how good it felt to give back to your own community. TEEP gave me the opportunity to give back by going on a farm and helping out with some responsibility. You never realize how hard others life is until you step in their shoes. Once I saw the peoples faces that we were helping it was like nothing ever before. I never understood what people meant by, “It’s better to give than receive” because as a young girl I would love receiving gifts and hate giving them. But though my growth with TEEP I know what that quote means and how it feels. By giving that gift, it then gives me hope that that person will give to someone else. TEEP has done many things for me, but my favorite tool they taught me was that giving reciprocity never felt so good. Now every time I have the opportunity to help someone I don’t take a second thought on anything. I act, because I know that the reward of satisfaction is greater than anything in the world. From a young age I have always been a very determined and driven person for everything that I set out to do. I have always known that no matter what I do in life I want to do something that can make a difference in someone's

    nothing is impossible

    I used to think things i wanted to do were too impossible, or too extreme, or to unrealistic, but I now know that if you set your mind to something, you can do it. i learned that nothing is impossible because my Aunt had cancer. I thought 'she is gonna die, it's impossible that she is gonna keep on living.' To this day she is living out her life to the fullest cancer free. She told me i could do anything, i now know i can do anything. I wanna make a difference in the world. i wanna save someone in need. I think everyone should be given the chance to live out their life to the fullest. I am gonna make that change so everyone has the chance to do that and to try to achieve their dreams. Even if i can only help one person, i know i helped someone and made them happy. i know it is going to be hard to try and do this but i am willing to to put my sweat, tears, and passion into this goal because everyone deserves a chance, and i think i can do this because nothing is impossible. i am going to this but i know i will not be able to do this alone. i am going to try and make a club or something like that to help me and then we can have a bigger impact. We can raise money for Unicef. There is also another charity we can do called Red Nose Day. It is a British charity that helps children get the nutrients and vitamins they need to keep living. The children that are only 3 years old and don't get them die because they need it but people don't realize it only takes one call are a few dollars to save their lives. They are only 3 years old and they dont get to live their lives. To meet people, to fall in love, to have friends, to go to a school, to go to college, to find out their passion, all they need is a person to care for them and want them to help them. I wanna be that person. I wanna make a chance to that little girl or little girl. They deserve a chance, let's stand together and give them that chance. Let's make a difference. So let's do it. i…

    Ever since I was young, I was always interested in the idea of helping people other than myself. I never knew the actual meaning of truly helping another person until October, 2010, my freshman year. My resolve for helping others sparked into a flame when I visited a church in San Jose where I experienced something that would completely change my life. At this church, there was an organization called Milal that helps take care of people with disabilities. It was in that place that I was able to learn the true meaning of helping others.…

    When someone looks at me, they see one thing; I see another. In my mind I want to help people, but in a way that is behind the scenes and not the whole world knows about. They see a shy little girl, but I see a girl who wants to change the world. Although, it may be a little complicated for me change the world when I do not exactly have the best motivation. I have insecurities that may or may not always show on the outside, and anxiety that overtakes my mind when exciting or scaring events take place.…

    Throughout my entire life, I have found that hard work and dedication can help me achieve any goal that I set. I have overcome the separation and lack of decent parents, incarceration of my oldest brother, and many other events with the morals and skills that were taught to me by my grandparents (who are my legal guardians). Due to their influence and love, I have always put my best foot forward and looked at the world with optimism. Since the second grade, I have been in gifted/honor courses, exceeded through my classes, and have made many friends. My backbone does not consist of selfish desires or influences; it consists of my morals and the family and friends that I do have pushing me to change the world.…

    JROTC has taught me the meaning of a good citizen. It opened a door to show the true colors of a patriotic citizen. This program has guided me into the successful path in achieving my goals. It teaches me to be respectful to others and taught me how to display my pride for my country. Also, they have shown me how one can be so dedicated to serving their country. They have taught me to help others who are not in the position to help themselves; to be helpful and considerate. To be willing to put others before myself.

    For the People Helping People scholarship, I feel I have aptly demonstrated my character and integrity through my volunteer work. I first started volunteering for my senior project during my junior year of highschool at a local pre-k. During that time I racked up a total of forty-five volunteer hours. I honestly can say I enjoyed every one of those hours, but at that time I had no idea how much a difference they would make in my life.…

    I joined JROTC for the experiences and for the people I would meet. I knew right off the bat the JROTC environment would be friendly. And it is. Many people think our program is just about exercising and things of that nature but its not. It teaches you things you need to know. Life lessons and skills that you must know in order to survive in the modern world are taught through presentations and book lessons. They also teach you how to maintain good study habits and to make good choices.…

    Having a need to make a difference or have some sort of impact on someone’s life can be a life altering realization for some people and may push them towards a certain field of work or way of life. In my own experienced I realized that the one thing I want to do in life is help others and make an contribution no matter how large or small the outcome may be. I feel like I can relate to this need, I have always had a desire to want to show others that there are good and caring people all around them contrary to what they may believe.
