I believe that community service is a very important part in becoming a well-rounded person; it's important to give back. These days, I volunteer an average of 4 hours a week at a museum, and even though I have by far surpassed my requirement hours for school, I continue to volunteer. The ability to help someone in need is an indescribable feeling; it not only makes you feel good inside, it makes you feel like you're doing something good for the world.

I think that everybody should do some community service at some point in their life. Not only are you planning your time to do some good in the world, but you're doing something good for yourself as well.
