“We all die. The goal isn't to live forever, the goal is to create something that will.” – Chuck Palahniuk
As it’s my senior year I’m only have a few months before I leave OSC forever, before I go as key club president I want to plan and initiate something that will outlast myself. An annual charity drive, fund raising event, or service award that will promote C&S in the school. In this way I can engage with an issue of global importance, by inspiring others for years to come I can do far more good over the long run than any single act I could do myself.
My favorite idea so far is to start a competition, have key club grow fund every year then accept proposals from any student with a plan to help those in need. Service leaders can vote on the best idea, implement it using the fund and whoevers idea is chosen given an award during the final assembly for their work. It would encourage students to keep their eyes open for opportunities to do good, make them more aware of all the ways they can contribute to the world, and most importantly give everyone in school with a good with a plan the means and opportunity to really make a difference.
