About

Why Alexis Wants To Serve

I would like to spend the next year serving because I am interested in becoming a part of something that is much greater than myself and my comfort zone. It is my goal to eventually run a non profit, urban youth development organization upon completing my collegiate education. It is my desire to serve for a year so I am able to start putting those desires into action and giving what I can to communities in need. I hope that through a service year I am not only able to change make a difference in the lives of youth in need, but that they are also able to make a difference in my life as well.
