Community Service
Valdosta State UniversitySara Moye
I did most of the community service with my cheerleading squad
On January the 17th and 19th I volunteered to
build a house on Peeples street. The first day I
nailed wood over the ceiling and the
second day I evened out the front yard with a
shovel and rake! It was hard work, but in the end I felt a sense of pride in helping build a
house for someone in need!

cheerleaders had a clinic to teach
children the basic fundamentals of
cheerleading. Here we are
playing “duck, duck, goose”.

We worked with the little cheerleaders for five hours and taught them a cheer and dance to perform at half time.

Goodwill Volunteering
I volunteered at Goodwill for 2 hours. We helped organize
clothes and other items that were donated.

more oxygen!
COA Competition
Volunteering for 8 hours in Macon, Georgia for an all
day competition. My cheerleading squad
unloaded trucks full of spring flooring and mats
and built 2 spring floors…sound easy? Definitely not! Then we had to manage the
competition.
Adopt a child for Christmas
No, I did not adopt a child, but I did
buy a gift for a child who does not usually get a gift for Christmas. The child I gave a
gift to was a 4 year old girl.
She really wanted a princess dress. So I got her a beautiful yellow princess dress with
matching play shoes and a sparkling princess crown.
Volunteering was an awesome way to feel appreciated. I love to help those in need. All the community service I have
done has made me feel like a better person. My favorite volunteering job would have to be the cheerleading clinic for small children. I felt like a
leader, and those children looked up to me. Nothing can express that feeling!
Community service is a way to become a better person and feel better about
yourself!
