The community service that I did at longwood during my Freshman year was for a church which I don’t have a close relation with religion, but I was glad to do the work for someone else even if we did not share the same views. I really think that is what service is and what it stands for.
Service is helping others when you are in the position to help them even if they can give you nothing in return. It is compassion and human nature. We like to help other people because it makes us feel good about ourselves. So to serve is to provide someone with your compassion and understanding without judgement. We try to help people with what they need help with because we have been in a situation where no one helped us and when we are given the opportunity to help we cannot turn a blind eye.
