I was also a coordinator of the Common Cents for the Penny Harvest in my local school in my community. This organization is a charity that helps to give back to the community. All we did was collect the common cents that people threw away, and we would donate them to people who were less fortunate than ourselves.
I taught my students to value money, and I showed them that they could help others even though they were quite young. We also would discuss how to help other organizations.
We were able to send money to Guyana to help the students at the Canefield Primary School. The teachers and students needed money to buy school supplies and books. They were able to help themselves, and they were grateful that we shared our resources with them.
I am very proud to have worked in the Common Cents for the Penny Harvest. It gave me opportunities to serve my fellow human beings. I believe that we should share our lives in helping others, especially those who are in need.view less
