Being able to help by giving them the hope of actually going out in the world and to know what it means to have dreams. Knowing that I could greatly impact the community was such a rewarding experience since this helps spread the word on children everywhere can live filled with hope.
What I wish was different
I did not have any concerns with the experience.
Advice
I focused on providing accommodation and service at the pool (Park of Dreams) and serving food during breakfast time on the weekends. Over the years I learned from many of the people who worked there and it's the residents who taught me that even if you are presented with obstacles, don't think limited in doing the things you want to do.
