At Wartburg they stress how community engagement and service is extremely helpful to bettering your life for the future. Through direct service and practicing socially responsible behavior everyday I feel that I reach out to my communtiy and get involved. With direct service I am able to build my resume and also earn volunteer hours which are needed to furthur my education. Another valuable gift I receive from volunteering is learning how to interact with the people around you to achieve a common goal. It develops great leadership skills as well as team building and learning how to reach out and care for others.
Along with working together with other people, I also have learned to bring my responsibility skills to a personal level. Through daily responsible acts, I help keep the living environments in a comforting manner by cleaning up after myself and making sure the public facilities look the same as they did before I used them. Being independent individuals we all need to step up to the plate and make sure that we practice these skills and habits everyday, so they become natural when we enter the real world.
