Visiting St. Vincent De Paul:
Before visiting St. Vincent De Paul my expectations were for it to be a long day. My job was to put a portion of vegetables on each plate for the homeless. I think I did really well for my first time helping out feed the homeless. The only thing I would do different is try to move a little bit faster.
I think my behavior was pretty good, when you volunteer your behavior should be the best you can do because if you volunteer it is for a reason so you should do your best. It was not hard to act appropriate, there was some times that were funny but it wasn’t hard to not get out of control. When going to the museum my behavior was more silly because it was fun, and going to volunteer was more of a job. At the end of the day I felt like I had helped out a lot.
After volunteering some people showed how much we helped out. I thought I did a good thing by helping feed people that needed it. If I were to pick a way to help out that would be my favorite way.
Visiting St. Vincent DePaul ♥.
Before going to volunteer at St. Vincent DePaul I was not excited about it, I was wishing I didn't have to go. But to my surprise, I ended up enjoying myself. My job was to put a bowl of salad on every tray and then pass them on to Damian. I could not have done a better job. =] It was a good position for me because it kept me busy the entire time. Finally, yes I do feel successful in my volunteering. My behavior while volunteering was appropriate. I did my job efficiently and had a positive attitude. Every visit should have the same behavior. In conclusion, I know that I was not too thrilled about going to feed the homeless but I had a positive perspective on it and I ended up enjoying myself.
Last Friday as SBTA gave a helping hand to the needy. Sbta students helped with serving, cleaning up, and pass out trays. We had 3 students giving the right amount of food for the shelter less. I was one of the students that help put the food on the trays. Before entering St. DePaul I thought it was going to be like bums fighting each other for some food. Everybody was going to be crazy and say stuff that did not make any sense. Mostly all the shelter less people who came were just looking for some food.
I felt that I could have been more successfully with serving the food. Or could have more control were the food was landing. I found I have to do things slow or I make a mess of everything. The people that we were working for were crazier than some of the homeless people. I could have put the trays over the spaghetti before putting it on the plate.
When I volunteer I feel better I don't feel like I am not contributing to society.
- Well since I have already gone I kind of know what to expect. I expect thing like smelly people, rude people, also nice people, funny people. There are a lot of different people that goes there. My job was to gather the plates and clean the tables. I also helped out a little with disabled people. I feel I did do a good job. There was no complaints or anything so I was successful.
- I think that my behavior was great. I was helpful and courteous. That is pretty much how you are supposed to act when volunteering. It wasn’t that hard to behave appropriate. You just have to realize that some of these people are not in the same world as you are. It is very different from when you go to the museum. In the museum it is not much interaction with other people.
- Well it is not that bad to go feed them. I have no problem with keep doing that. As long as I get some community service hours. I havent learned much from this experience.
On Friday we had a visit to St. Vincent De Paul, our expectations as a class was to act in a respectful manner, treat everyone with courtesy, and not misjudge or look at anyone differently. i was partners with Libini and we were both assigned to stand at the fruit stand and hand out either peaches or pair to whom ever wanted some. I believe that i did a good job in handed out the fruits. I feel real good that we got the chance to once again volunteer to feed the people there. Its a great opportunity to go out and help out are community.
i presented myself in a very respectful manner and had a smile to every customer i had to attend. I also helped with some of the people who were handicap in getting them what they needed. i think the way one should act when volunteering is to have a good face and make it seem that you want to be there, not that you were forced to go. Well are behaviors going to St. Vincent and other museums is basically the same. When visiting another place you must always show up with a positive attitude and act respectful to all.
I really enjoy going to feed others its better then being in school all day, and i think we should go out more often.
My expectations before going there were nothing in particular; I was just curious as to what lies ahead. And I was nervous that I wouldn’t know what to do. My job was to check how many meals were given. I believe I did very well at that. I could have been more talkative, but I was just fine because I feel successful in my volunteering.
My behavior was perfect, I believe. When volunteering you act with respect to all of the people surrounding you. It was not hard at all to behave. I would behave the same next time. At the museum we were more rowdy and at St. Vincent De Paul we were working not observing.
I had a good time checking off the meals served and I felt good after and during. I learned that it is a wonderful thing to help others in need.
My expectations for St. Vincent de Paul's was pretty normal. I've been through the process before of feeding the less fortunate. My job was to pass out sodas to each person with a tray. I feel that I've done a great job. I had to make sure no one would sneak behind my partners and steal sodas and i also helped make sure their buckets were full of the soda. I made sure that each trashcan full of soda was empty and kept everything organized. I feel that i've helped a lot because if i didn't make sure they were able to reach the sodas then the process would slow down.
I kept my behavior pretty mature. I made sure i was doing what i was supposed to do. I am expected to respect everyone and use an appropriate behavior. When going to museums we are able to walk around and talk more freely, but we still have work to do. In St. Vincent De Paul's area we are to be very mature because we are helping people. It's like a job and a privilege to help the less fortunate.
I like feeding the homeless because it teaches me to appreciate the things i have in life. I also like feeding the homeless because you realize that most of them don't even look like they don't have anything to eat.
My experience of visiting st. vincent depaul was good i liked serving the homeless food and seeing how happy they were. they were happy and thanked you when you would serve them.i didnt know what it was going to be like but in the end i actually didnt mind and i liked it. plus we werent in school so that made it easier for me.
There were alot fo nice people there that would thank you when you would serve them but then there was also people that were mean and didnt say thank you or anything.It didnt really matter to me but i didnt mind and kept serving them. It was a fun experience because i got half the day off at school and it was for a good reason. i would really like to go back and help them out agian.
It was also a community service type thing which also helped me and others with the hours. it was fun and made me reaslize how many people dont have homes and how many little kids dont have food or a house to go to everyday and night. That just makes me want to do good and have a good future for my kids.
