One of my major goals for the year is to make an impact in the community that has given so much to me. In an effort to do that, I set out on a mission to learn more about the impact of the great organizations working so hard in the community. Through this blog, the opportunity to volunteer, and the continued relationship with these organizations, I intend to assist and highlight the great work of groups all around. In order to start this endeavor, I decided to volunteer at an organization that is very close to me, The Frankie Lemmon School and Developmental Center. I have had the privilege of volunteering at the Frankie Lemmon School for the past four years and it has been an absolute pleasure to see the impact that the school has on the children and community. The Frankie Lemmon School focuses on instructing kids with disabilities ranging from age 3-5. The school provides inclusive classrooms and experiences offering all children a sense of belonging, friendship, and an opportunity to reach their full potential. While I hope that I have made an impact on the school with my time throughout the years, I am confident that it has made a huge impact on my life. It is always such a pleasure to see how the teachers and staff interact with the children and truly want to help each child on their own journey. The opportunity to see the love and passion that this school shares for each individual student shows me just how impactful these teachers, staff and school are for the community. In closing, I urge you to take the opportunity to learn more about the school. Check out their website at www.frankielemmonschool.org or reach out to them at 919-821-7436 to see how you could best impact the school and the lives of the students.
