    Agape Child & Family Services

    I was able to help set up for trunk or treating and help while the event was going on. We were going to have musical chairs and play games, but sadly, we got rained out. We moved everything to a dry area and continued with the Halloween fun. It was fun to interact with kids and see all the different costumes. This was a very fun event and I would do it again.

    I volunteered with Agape to help make quilts for their Heartlight event. We made the quilts so they could go on the picnic tables at the event. This was a very fun experience and I would definitely do it again.

    Project Homeless Connect - Memphis 2018

    I was a navigator at Project Homeless Connect. I helped navigate for four people and it was an amazing experience. I was able to help those suffering from homelessness in Memphis get resources that they felt they needed and I got to be their friend for the day, as well as have lunch with them. Those I helped were so sweet, selfless, and inspiring. I also got to hear about their personal stories. The people I helped made an impact on my life, and I'm definitely going to volunteer for Project Homeless Connect again.
