During winter break of my second year, I helped with a Christmas toy drive at my local church. The service opportunity included adopting a family to provide with gifts and necessities during the holidays. This is a service event I do every year, and I think it reaches a lot of people and children in my local community. I helped provide Christmas gifts for multiple families through my church. Helping my local community is extremely important to me because we have a lot of families who cannot afford to give their children basic necessities. It is nice to make a difference for those in my community, even if it is as small as a Christmas gift.
