Blog #2 Summer Mentorship

via GIPHY



1. List the contact name, phone number, and organization of the person with whom you volunteered.

2. What qualified this person as an expert in your topic choice?  
   
3. List three questions for further exploration now that you've completed your summer hours.
How does an organization get people to come to their programs?
How can a non-profit have so much stuff that they hoard without giving out to people in need?
What is the most important factor in keeping a non-profit going?    
4. What is the most important thing you gained from this experience? Why?
I learned that although volunteers might feel superfluous, they are important to the every day function of a nonprofit to keep it from going into chaos. Before when I volunteered I always felt like I was unneeded. At Foothill Family Shelter, I always have things to do, and I can see my progress through out the day. 
5. What is your senior project topic going to be?  How did mentorship help you make your decision?  Please explain.
Health in Homelessness. My mentorship made me realize how selfish nutrition/weight training was, because I could be using my knowledge and ideas to be helping others instead of doing a very "me" oriented project.
