NHS Chairperson of Pope John XXIII's Lion's Den school store.
This is a volunteer position run by my school's National Honor Society. It involves coordinating store volunteers, moving inventory, assisting customers, directing volunteers, and learning marketing, sales and entrepreneurial skills.
NHS Chairperson of "Stuff the Stocking" for Project Self-Sufficiency.
This is a volunteer position run by my school's National Honor Society. It involves creating the school's marketing campaign for Project Self-Sufficiency's Season of Hope Holiday Toy Shop. My classmates and I run our school's toy drive, produce promotional material, make announcements, oversee donations, shop for additional toy donations, and bring attention to the toy drive's cause.
Chatham University's Rachel Carson Healthy Planet Award.
As a result of the work involved with my Gold Award project, The Golden Garden, I was selected for this environmental award from Chatham University. The foundation of my project was based on a research paper I wrote on the harms of pesticides. I was given this award because I share in Rachel Carson's "commitment and passion to improving the environment and [my] community through sustainability".
"Rachel Carson is best remembered for her book, Silent Spring, published in 1962, which gave an accurate account of what might happen if pesticides and DDT went unchecked. This book was directly responsible for the banning of that pesticide and gave impetus to the founding of the environmental movement."
