@damilola
I don`t know what I can tell you to write but to link with the community you need to ,first of all, present the challenge and explain its different dimensions then make one of these dimensions something related to community. Then, explain how you managed to solve it in a creative way and indicate how by solving it, you could benefit yourself and community. Even if only you who benefited from this challenge, you can say how this will help you do something effective to your community.
I hope I could help you but put more details to help others know how to advise you better

Oloruntimilehin it seems that you did not post the full prompt that you are supposed to respond to. As such, I will have to hazard a guess as to how the discussion of this prompt should go. Therefore, unless there was a chicken pox epidemic in your community, this illness is not something that can be discussed on a community basis or show a relationship with the community. What is the obstacle that you plan to write about in relation to your having chicken pox and the community that you live in? When you think of an obstacle, you have to think in terms of something that prevented you from achieving something that you badly wanted to achieve. I am really not sure how you can connect the community to the illness that you had. What was the situation in the community at the time? Why would you consider having chicken pox an obstacle that related to the community? These are the questions you have to consider. If you find that you can't find any common connections, then that is not the topic that you should be writing about for this prompt. Perhaps it would be best if you thought of something less wide in scope. Focus on a smaller situation that involved you directly. Whatever that obstacle is, you should be able to provide an explanation of the challenge and how you were able to overcome it.
Thanks a lot guys. here's the full prompt
