Through my student organization, G.L.O.W., I volunteered with Hands On Atlanta, working with middle school students in the Metro Atlanta community. I supported students through engaging and enriching activities designed to strengthen their academic skills, encourage participation, and promote positive learning experiences.

I enjoyed volunteering at Clay Harmony Leland Elementary School through Hands on Atlanta. I worked with other AUC Students from CAU to help kids ages K-5 learn through different activities such as personal comic strip story making, volcano reactions, and fun gym time.

This faith-based community food pantry provided a welcoming and organized system for individuals in line, treating them as customers of a store. The staff’s kindness and hospitality created a sense of belonging, and made it feel like a family.

I had a great time at the Atlanta Public School Technology and Innovation competition. It was great seeing all the youth in the community doing such incredible things.

Volunteering at the 5k was such a great experience. Being able to cheer on the runners was a small part to play in their overall race, but it felt really good knowing I was helping them reach their goals. Seeing their determination really made me feel inspired!

It was also cool to be a part of something that brought so many people together. The energy of the event was contagious, and it was awesome to see so much community spirit.

This weekend I worked with children at Discovery @ Clay Harmony Leland Elementary I was apart of the STEAM group and taught them how to create Slime.
