Reflections on a Different Kind of Service

As a contributor and an editor of Impelled to Act, I was fortunate enough to work with an eclectic group of people this past year. I worked mostly from campus doing quick interviews here and there with people on campus or off campus (by phone) in mornings. In the afternoon, I would transcribe these interviews and optimize a couple pictures for the website. Even though preforming these little tasks became routine, there were many memorable moments that occurred during this Social Action year. Moments that range from playing with the babies at the Pebble Ridge Daycare to calling the organization DC Diaper Bank and begging them for an interview are moments that will remain with me.
