In my service-learning experience, I contributed to Relay for Life by donating money, setting up for events, and preparing awards for winning teams. Additionally, I participated in community service projects for Mr. and Mrs. Register and Mr. and Mrs. Green, which included yard work and car washing. Through this journey, I learned that service-learning encompasses helping our elderly neighbors and improving our local community. While I faced some challenges, like picking up trash and getting dirty, I found joy in making connections and learned the importance of giving back. I plan to continue my community service efforts.
