From Nick’s winning scholarship essay...
“…Volunteer agencies and the role that even one individual could take within a community are two extremely important ideas that coincide with one another. Those agencies need volunteers in order to work, and it is everyone’s responsibility to get involved and help. Society likes to complain about all of the flaws in America, or how the world is such a bad place, but even one of those people could make a difference. Volunteering at a local agency doesn’t have to be time consuming, it could be a couple of hours as month, and it would still make a difference. Any one single individual can make a difference, and it is the responsibility of everyone to make the global and local community a better place.
Once I become a physician’s assistant, I plan on starting my career in a less fortunate area. I will provide medical care to anyone that might need it for any reason. After becoming financially secure, and helping the community in which I start, I plan on coming back to Muskegon and starting my own scholarship fund at the Muskegon Community Foundation.”
