My project was called Walk for a Well and I organize a Walk-a-thon
at my local high school track that raised money
for water wells to be put in in Niger, Africa.
Well I'll went some like museums of natural disasters and things.
I started feeling bad about it
and then I started doing a school project
and I was doing on the crisis of unsanitary water.
And then I'll came across some facts that
was like half the world's hospital beds
are filled with patients who are suffering from
water-related disease.
I just like oh my gosh.
Like, here I am you know,
I have rivers rushing by me and I have clean water.
I don't even have to think
about when I'm gonna have water
and these people don't even know
like when they wake up they even have water that day.
So it was kinda like weighing on my chest
for a while it took me about 5 months.
And then once I started I can't stop
and I am so passionate about it
Volunteering makes me feel
I would say you know really it kinda way of life for me like.
That's I think that's what you're supposed to do.
You're not supposed to be here
to like take resources and everything
You are here to love everybody you know.
That's, It just makes me feel great
like I am living a good life.
