I've had the incredible pleasure in volunteering for the Santa Ana Police Foundation in the summer. For the short period of time, I experienced events that have brought together a community and show me the generosity of people, even in this day and age. I was as involved as regular staff members and was able to share my experiences with other people. This was an excellent way for me to get to know more about what is affecting my community, as well as gaining experience in working in a non-profit setting.
