CAS GOALS

Last year was an extremely productive year for me in the fields of creativity, action, and service. Due to the many opportunities that OSC has given me, I have managed to thrive in all three. However, I was especially involved in service. This year I will continue to show commitment with all three of my service activities. I hope to be a inspirational and productive leader in RCCI. Additionally, I hope to develop my teaching skills ad continue to help with community through my leadership role in Helping Hands. I will plan and initiate a set of new lessons each week! Over the summer I was extremely busy volunteering with an out of school service group called Salvage. This group focuses on helping the lower-socioeconomic class community in Sri Lanka. In specific they focus on finding employment for war widows. I engaged in a variety of different projects. Every Wednesday, I went to a feeding center where we provided food for the mothers and their young children. I also gave a talk at one of these meetings about fire safety, food sanitation, and child safety within the home. This upcoming year I hope to lead a variety of food and dental care product drives in order to provide these families with essentials.

This year I will be extremely busy with school work and college applications, however I hope to still set aside time for action. I will be participating in the soccer and basketball SAISAS. I am very passionate about these sports and would like to continue developing my skills and continue to work collaboratively with my teammates. Additionally, I may attend workout sessions with the OSC volleyball team in order to stay fit!
