I Am Mana Patel: The National Junior Honor Society

I am Mana Patel, a 6th grader at Triangle Math and Science Academy. If I am accepted into the prestigious team of the National Junior Honor Society, then I would like to be the cause for many beneficial events, one of which I would like to share through this essay.

Numerous children in the world live in orphanages and foster cares, where neither do they get proper education nor do they get parental and family love. The service event that I would like to propose is called a Storybook Drive.

In this occasion, students in grades 5-12 compete to write the best short book for kids of ages 5-8 that they can. After the competition victors are announced, all the stories can be donated to multiple local orphanages, foster centres, and specialized

academies.

I can be a leader and role model in this event by making posters, brochures, and advertising this event through the whole school. I could
also expound to students why this is so important. I would also participate in the competition, as it is unjust to only instruct and not do any labor or work.

In order for this competition to work, we first have to spread word of this competition and give a due date. Then, we would have ELA teachers read all the pieces of writing and choose 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners out of 2 divisions; grades 5-8 and 9-12 Finally, after contacting local child service centres, we can donate the books. We would bring so many smiles to young lives.

This event is very important to our school and the society. Even if students going to TMSA are too young to participate, they can get inspired to do something good like this when they are bestowed the opportunity.

I would like to be part of the National Junior Honor Society because it will be a massive and uplifting learning experience. I will build a personality and character that will help me succeed. I will be the best student, friend, and person that I can possibly be.
