Ever since I was a young child, my parents have bestowed in me the importance of giving back and helping others live a more fruitful life. I was a sophomore communications major at a state school when an idea stuck me that would change my life forever. I realized that the only way that I was going to become the person that I wanted to be was to become the change that I wanted to see. I knew that I couldn’t fix the world’s problems, but I could change one person’s life at a time by simply helping them with a random act. So that is what I did.
