Weekly Quote“There is always light, if only we're brave enough to see it. If only we are brave enough to be it.” -Amanda Gorman So what have I done...I cannot believe we are halfway through with this project, feels unbelievable. Now is the time to stay consistent and focused, no time for slacking. I have two activities in the works right now. If you haven't read week 5 those activities are donating items and volunteering at Samaritan Ministries. Update on feeding the homeless My mother let me know that it will be happening sometime this month It is currently a new day. I just called SM and they will be getting back to me. What I did was call them to see if they had earlier times than the ones listed on their website and luckily they did. On the phone I was able to set up my account so I could volunteer. Because I am under 18, an adult has to be with me so I asked my Aunt if she could be the one to come with. She already volunteered before meaning she has an account set up. After we got off the phone I emailed the man the information needed about Maya(the person who is coming along) so he could set her up an account. He has us scheduled for Sunday the 26th, from 10am to 2:30pm. Moving on to this week's activity Person of the Week ![]() Nevasia is a Sophomore at DCHS. She also has Mr. Barker and her Genius Hour is about cooking. Here's a link to her website: Cooking With Nevasia Awhile back I went through my closet to make room for new clothing. In this process I got rid of a lot of clothes, and instead of throwing them away my mom put them in the building. First thing I will need to do is go through the bags. I also let my family know that if they have anything to donate, I will be collecting it soon. As for Nevasia she will be doing the same. I want our clothes to go to a place specifically dedicated to giving them to those in need. This part calls for research. Winston-Salem recuse mission has a clothing ministry on Wednesday from 8:00am - 9:30am, this is a tight and specific window that will have to be done on a day I don't have school or done by someone else. I chose this place because their mission is to provide clothing and more to the fellow women, men, and children in the community. They have information listed on their website but more often than not that isn't always up to date. Because of that I will be calling them. I got all my clothes out the building which ended up being four hefty bags of clothes. After that I went through all of them to make sure there was strictly clothes in them. Then I compacted the clothes to fit in three trash bags. My mother and Aunt also gave clothes to donate. At the end of that I placed the bags in my trunk. On the way to drop them off is when I will pick up Nevasia's clothing. Another possible drop off location is Just HOPE. This place is more convenient because it is in Mocksville and with my week usually being packed, I can just have a family member drop it off for me. The time I am hoping for is Tuesday! I will be calling them to confirm the drop off, and since I wont be able I have asked my Aunt to drop the clothes off for me. Reflection
Upcoming Goals...1) Genius Hour announcements
