Our lives are in constant flow, going through good and bad times, yet some live a quite desirable lifestyle while those less fortunate may have a hard time getting by or undergo tougher situations than their peers. But no matter how different peoples’ lifestyles are, we are all from the same species, and we’re all obligated to help those who need more than they can get.
Their mission being to let cancer patients know that they’re never alone, members of the Gladstone Branch (Travis Xue, Angela Xu, Jenny Xu, Owen Luo) took it upon themselves to cheer up some hospitalized children by sending thoughtfully-written notes to them. These children are experiencing tough hardships, and the least that the Gladstone Branch could do for them was to share a little of their joy with them. While creating feelings of self-worth and instilling confidence in these children, the efforts ultimately put smiles on the faces of everyone involved.
Doing something for yourself gives motivation but doing something for others gives meaning – Maxime Lagacé
