Week: April 5-11:

For my Service-learning project, I chose to volunteer at Habitat for Humanity of Collier County. Habitat for Humanity is a Christian organization that builds affordable houses and develops safe communities. As a volunteer, I helped build homes for people in need.
My service-learning project gave me a good perspective of my sense of place in the community. It made me realize the importance of protecting and conserving the environment so that we can inhabit it. By building or buying a home, we take on the responsibility to protect the environment in which our home is located. Thus, the process bounds us to the natural environment in which we live in.
