I changed my mind about volunteering at St. Michael's Hospital. Instead I will be volunteering at the homework center in Stevens Point with a couple of elementary education majors. I will be working with children from ages seven to fourteen. I will be helping them with their science homework and playing games with them. I hope to help the kids that are struggling with their studies and hopefully give them a better grasp on the subject matter.

Hospital project

I am working with Brynna on a volunteer project at one of the area hospitals. We intend on either working with childrenor adults; helping out wherever we can. I hope to gain some valuble volunteer experience from this project. I am a health promotions major and would love to take patients for walks or talk about nutrition with them. I strongly believe in the benefits of wellness and hope to teach other people about it. Brynna and I are in the process of contacting hospitals right now, and hope to hear back from them soon. We plan on volunteering once a week if possible; either going together or alone. We haven't worked out all of the details yet, but hope to get started after break.
