Helped customers who had trouble finding items around the shop.

  4. What I learned… I choose to volunteer at the Nearly New Shop because I wanted to help others including children get all the essentials that is needed to keep warm during the winter time. I also wanted to help those who have trouble purchasing clothing and other necessities; The Nearly New Shop is a great opportunity for those who need it the most. I have learned from this experience that I appreciate everything I have in my life and would never take anything for granted. This was all a brand new setting and experience for me and having the opportunity to work with the Ladies of Charity, and helping those in need touched my heart in many ways that I will never forget. Knowing that I helped a child in need receive warm clothing will impact my life forever.

  5. New Skills Acquired Patience Cooperation Motivation Understanding of others Support Availability

  6. Student Learning Outcome I have learned that not everyone in this world is as fortunate and any opportunity that is available for those who need it is what matters the most. I have learned to have an open mind and to be able to have a better understanding of others around me. Everyone has an equal opportunity to deserve what is best and this is the outcome I received from volunteering at The Ladies of Charity Nearly New Shop.
