My Leadership Roles and Community Involvements
In honing my skills and giving back to the community, I have played various leadership roles through my affiliation with various organizations on campus. Contributing immensely to developments via community services projects are ways I deem myself to be an advocate of change in the society. Since my enrollment into college, I have participated in various community service projects that have yielded positive developments in the society.
I was able to demonstrate team oriented leadership via my involvement with the Students in Free Enterprise (SIFE) Chapter at Voorhees College. SIFE is an international non-profit organization that works with leaders in business and higher education to teach college students important concepts by mobilizing them to develop and participate in educational outreach projects while developing the skills to become socially responsible business leaders.
Being a SIFE member, I implemented an "Educate a Child Abroad" project, to raise books and stationary to support the education of less privileged kids in Nigeria. In realizing the minimum target of raising a thousand books, I sent letters to non-governmental agencies, state libraries, departmental stores and university's faculties, and also, hosted awareness programs in the university and neighboring high schools in reaching out to the students to support this project. This project assisted me in building my entrepreneurship skills as I deployed and navigated various options in accomplishing this mission. I also participated as a customer service member in "Rock for Dough" fundraising, golf sponsored project to support less privileged kids in the Augusta, Georgia community. In addition to my roles, I have presented business projects at SIFE regional competition held in Atlanta, Georgia.
As the Public Relation Officer of the Rotaract Club, an affiliation of the Rotary International, I mentored and taught the Denmark Olar High school students Elementary Mathematics and Physical Sciences via a "Reach One, Teach One" project. This project was aimed at assisting the students to develop a positive attitude and pursue academic excellence in their studies. Mentoring the high school students was helpful in improving my creative ability and developing a good working relationship with kids. I assisted in raising funds for treatment of polio victims across the globe during the "Purple Pinky" project on the world polio day. On several occasion, I have been involved in community sanitations via the "Adopt a Highway" program.
Currently a transfer student at Dillard University, I was a member of the Dillard University team that took part in the United Negro College Fund annual 24th Walk for Education and AIDS to raise funds to support the education of less privileged children in the society and to combat AIDS epidemic respectively.
In conclusion, there is no greater joy derived in life than a person to be the element of change one wishes to see in his or her environment and it is for such reasons I like to invest my energy in activities that affirm the oneness of humankind. I hope to promote world peace by setting up organization that will foster civil engagement and community building through implementation of global cultural enlightenment campaign projects and collaborate with International agencies to solicit funding for provision of basic amenities: adequate health care systems, food, drugs, clean water, shelter etc., in poorest and disaster affected world regions such as Somalia.
