2023 Winning Essay by Sidney Bernhardt

Mahatma Gandhi stated "The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of  others." In light of this quote, what woman has inspired your thoughts on volunteerism and why?" 


 Ruth Bader Ginsburg once said:  "Whatever community organization, whether it's a women's organization or fighting for racial justice, you will  get satisfaction out of doing something to give back to the community that you never get in any other way."  As someone who worked hard to break the standards of her time, Ginsburg would know about giving back to  her community. She fought hard to secure not only the rights of herself and her community, but the rights of  women all over the country. It is inspiring to hear her explain that volunteer work does not have to be for a  revolutionary cause for the worker to feel that she has done the right thing. Helping people and being involved  in my community has given me the kind of satisfaction that Ginsburg was referring to. It brings me joy to know  that I am helping those in my community, even if the activities which I have done have had only small impacts.  When I grow up, I hope to be involved in whichever community I end up living in. I want to get to know my  neighbors and greet new ones with a plate of homemade cookies. I want to help organize community events  and play an active role in bringing everyone together. In my community, I want to be known as someone who is  helpful and kind.  Until then, I am trying my best to do this while in high school. Through the volunteer activities which have been  made available to me through my school, I have been providing service to others and getting to know those in  my community better. In my opinion, the best way to create a safe and welcoming place to live is by working  together with your community, and I am more than happy to be involved in that process.
