I am inspired to give back to the community because growing up my mom emphasized how fortunate I was to grow up in a safe environment, healthy and that I did not have to worry about the bare necessities. I have always wanted to make a positive change in the world and I feel that everyone can do that through giving back to the community, whether it be volunteering your time, talent, or giving goods or monetary funds. The Organization I gave to is THE Breast Cancer Fundraiser (http://thebreastcancerfundraiser.org). They host extended cocktail parties at hip venues and encourage young professionals to give back. This is such an amazing organization that provides services not covered by insurance to breast cancer patients such as acupuncture, physical fitness plans, massage therapy and yoga which focuses on a holistic care and recovery program. The dedication I have seen within the organization is inspiring to see. Their WeCare program sends care packages to newly diagnosed patients that are economically disadvantaged, providing them with items that make their journey easier. When you go to their event you have a great time with all of your friends, you listen to inspiring stories about patients journeys, and you support a wonderful cause that is committed to preserving the dignity of patients and their family. I really admire their mission and passion for getting the next generation involved in giving back to the community.
