My Self reflection

Mohamed abdul aziz  / H00155069

 

I would like to share with you my experience and the knowledge I gained by studying the community service subject. We learned to help and support the people through volunteering work as good well and support. I have been participated in a great volunteer work in Zayed Higher Organization in ADNEC. This was a great experience; I have learned many important things, that nothing is impossible even if you are not fully healthy (disable) you are capable of reaching and making your dreams and aims to come true and to be a reality that you would like to live in and not to give up. During our volunteering work where we spent three days, the best thing what I have been through was when I helped and supported the special need people who could not do simple things by their own and getting in a return a smile or just a word of “thank you” , this was enough for me and kept me going on and on for  five or six hours a day without feeling it.

 

Today after studying the basics of the community services and participates in volunteering works, I can say that being a part of the community that we live in and supporting people around us as volunteering and not to ask for a money as a return is an amazing job and life time experience that I will never forget and keep participating in my community as a volunteer when every they need one in the future.

ZHO Volunteering reflection

Volunteering in Zayed higher organization in ADNEC for us it’s like new experience, we have learned things like even if you are not fully healthy you are capable of reaching whatever you want just don’t give up hope. When we were volunteering the past three days, the nicest thing was when you help someone and you get in return a smile or just thank you this was enough and kept us going for 5 or 6 hours a day. All in all we had a new and nice experience to work with professional people and a lot of different nationalities also were glad that we did our best to be helpful.
