Project H.O.P.E was a success! This past weekend was so rewarding, I literally smile everytime I think about it. All participants (who are now my friends ) were absolutely AWESOME!Not to mention having the coolest faculty advisor, Michelle Fitzgerald. Michelle let me lead the entire trip but was there whenever I needed advice, and man she gives great advice. I think everyone on the trip connected with her very well, she had genuine conversations with all of us. Overall we were just such a great group I don't know how I got so lucky. They all kept me laughing the entire weekend.We volunteered with Childrens Home of Tampa and Metropolitan Ministries. I don't want to show too many pictures because then that would spoil the video :)
Day one: we spent the day volunteering at the Children's Home of Tampa. We helped clean the campus and played football and activities with the children who live there. (We weren't allowed to take pictures of the children) :)
Day two we did a lot! We served food to the homeless through Hyde Park Ministries. In the afternoon we made airplanes and butterflies out of clothespins with the children at Metropolitan Ministries. Afterwards we helped cook dinner.
On our last day we went kayaking through Sargeant B. Park. Beautiful place!
