Gandhi Day of Service 2007 Reflection

Leticia and Robert

To my S.W.O.T. Family,

My experience at the Gandhi National Day of Service was a lot of fun. The Greening of Detroit was awesome! To be able to get outside and make a difference to a community by simply planting trees was rewarding to me. The best part was just seeing the residents come outside with their cameras and tell us how excited they were, made it all worth while. One resident stated, “Our tree died so we had to have it cut down about ten years ago. I can’t wait to just watch it grow! Thank you for doing this for us.”

In addition to that I made some new friends that had the same passion for people and their community as I do. We were motivated by each others spirit and we definitely pushed each other to get the job done!!! Can’t wait till the next project.
