It also made me realize how relatively easy I have it in this world when there are so many hungry people and children. I saw mothers with babies coming in by the dozens to shop at the food bank store, and owners of small food pantries picking up their daily and weekly supplies, and massive trailer trucks bringing dozens of pallets of donated food from grocery warehouses and distribution centers.
It all impacted my feeling about volunteering and helping others in need. It is hard to realize how many need such assistance until you see the huge amounts of people, and enormous amount of food necessary to feel those who can't afford to feed themselves.
What I Learned
One person really can make a difference. A small group of dedicated, generous, hard-working people can change a community....
And all of us working together could change the world. I helped one mother put her groceries in her car, and she smiled at me and thanked me like I had saved her life. She even hugged me. I'll never forget it.
The people that do this work don't ask for thanks and they don't need pats on the back. They do it because they want to. Believe me they could get paid a lot more doing the same type of work for a grocery chain or a huge discount store.
I also learned that it really doesn't matter what one chooses to do to help at an organization like this...or any other volunteer function. The needs are great, and everything helps, because that little job you do, like sweeping a floor, or helping to box the food, or moving pallets around, is something that, ultimately, helps to get the "big" job done.

Community participation is a requirement as well as a condition. It is a condition for raising resources and achieving more results. It engages the citizens deeply in work of the development of community. Community participation is about performing activities for the benefits of any community.
The significant natural deposits in rural areas are water, wildlife, woodlands and the environment as a whole. Rural areas like Bulilima-mangwe in Matabeleland, Mutoko and Kariba have actually had effective ecological plans that have actually brought to life the Communal Areas Management Program for Indigenous Resources (CAMPFIRE) which has concentrated on the development of neighborhood organizations particularly in rural areas for the management and sustainable usage of communal wildlife
Community outreach and counterterrorism with efforts towards exploitable weaknesses. Community Outreach and Terrorism International and domestic terrorism have reached levels previously believed to be impossible. Whether fueled by profits they get from trafficking drugs or whether they are fueled by religious ideologies, a series of communities express particular interest in wanting to get actively involved in performing activities characteristic to terrorist organizations. Many governments have the tendency to focus on fighting them

Community Nursing Reflection #5 Reading through Chapters 21-24 and 30-32 allowed me to have a more comprehensive view of nursing as my chosen profession and vocation. In these chapters, I learned about the different facets of nursing, which could be dependent on the people that nurses work with or the environment or settings they work in. For example, nurses could work with people of different socio-demographic profiles. Most evident was the
