    My Experience Volunteering at the Children's Home
    For my summer community service project last year, I decided to volunteer at the local children's home, which is an orphanage that houses kids who don't have families to care for them. I had never really spent much time around little kids before, so I wasn't sure what to expect going into it. But I'm really glad I decided to volunteer there because it ended up being such a rewarding and eye-opening experience.
    On my first day, I was pretty nervous as I walked through the doors of the children's home. The woman at the front desk could probably see the look of apprehension on my face because she gave me a warm smile and said "Don't worry, the kids are gonna love you!" Her kind words helped put me at ease a little bit. She led me back to a large playroom area wher
e around 15 kids between the ages of 4 and 8 were running around and playing with toys and games.
    As soon as I entered the room, several of the little kids came running up to me, eyes wide with curiosity about this new person. A few of the bolder ones immediately started bombarding me with questions - "What's your name? How old are you? Will you play dolls with me?" And so on. I smiled shyly and tried my best to engage with each of them.
    After the initial frenzy died down a bit, I was able to take a step back and observe the pure, unbridled joy and energy radiating from the children as they played. Despite the difficult circumstances that led them to grow up in an orphanage instead of with a family, they didn't seem to let it weigh them down. They were just innocent little kids being kids - laughing, running around, using their imaginations as they acted out fantasies with the toys. It was heartwarming but also heartbreaking at the same time.
    Over the next few weeks, I got to know all of the kids pretty well through playing countless games, helping them with arts and crafts, reading storybooks, and just general h
orsing around and fun. Each child had their own unique personality quirks and backstory for ending up at the home. There was rambunctious little Timmy who never stopped moving for a second. Samantha was the shy one who slowly started coming out of her shell around me. Jacob loved any game or toy that involved vehicles or machinery.
    And then there was Ella. Out of all the kids, the bond I formed with Ella was truly special. She was six years old and had been at the home for over three years after being removed from an unhealthy home situation by child protective services. Unlike a lot of the other kids, she didn't open up to new people very easily. For the first couple of weeks, she kept her distance from me and didn't really engage despite my attempts.
    But one day, she shyly approached me while I was reading a picture book to some of the other children and quietly asked if she could sit on my lap to look at the book too. As she cuddled up close to me, I could sense her finally letting her guard down and learning to trust me. From that point on, she was constantly by my side whenever I was at the home, holding my hand, asking me a million questions, and just craving any bit of positive attention and affection.
    In her painfully young life, Ella had already experienced more difficulty, instability, and lack of love than any child should ever have to go through. My heart broke for her, but I was determined to shower her with all the care, support, and stability I could during our time together. I wanted nothing more than to be the positive light in her life that she so desperately needed.

    Even though I was spending my summer giving back and volunteering my time, Ella was the one who actually ended up giving me something far more valuable - perspective. Getting to know her made me realize how lucky I was to be raised in a loving, stable home by parents who supported me and nurtured me every step of the way. It was sobering to think about all the things I'd taken for granted over the years that Ella had been deprived of through no fault of her own.
    My ties and commitment to volunteering at the children's home only grew stronger over that summer. I looked forward to going there every week, not just to spend time with Ella but with all of the kids. Being around their joyful, energetic, caring-free dispositions was like
a life-tonic. It revitalized my spirit and provided a mentality reset from the typical stresses of school, growing up, and dealing with teenage life.
