Today, Cole Holland Training Center arranged for several CNA and EMT students to volunteer at a local humanitarian organization sorting medical supplies. It was fun and allowed the students a chance to learn more about medical supplies and equipment and also gave them an opportunity to help their community.
Volunteering is a great way to bolster your resume, make professional contacts in your field and to increase your self esteem by doing something positive for others. It can alleviate stress by putting personal problems into perspective. How many of us felt grateful our houses were still upright and we had clean water and clean air after watching the events in Japan? Keeping an eye on our blessings increases our satisfaction and makes us happier people - which is a key component in getting a job. We like to be around positive, happy and motivated people. So good job today - you made a difference today and should be proud of yourselves. Plus, it looked like you were having a GREAT time too!
