Enhance Community Services with Mary Bowden

My name is Mary Bowden and I hope to raise money for mental health, community mental health programs, and mental health counselors. Included are empowerment programs to encourage and educate our youth in careers, internships/grants and college programs. Initiatives in community health fairs to provide information about health clinics, nutritional importance, and exercises! Basically, to enhance community services in communities where it may be lacking!

And let’s not forget our medical attention to our other family members, our beloved pets! Ensuring much medical attention is given to our pets that we love so dearly!

Keep in mind, small steps turns into big steps & all it takes, is to try that first step! I learned from my mother & she would encourage us to believe in our dreams & she would say, “you have to try because nothing beats a failure but to try.” My love for nature & everything in it has given me the passions & desires to seek out how I can make a difference to make life better for others! So follow with us this journey to make life better for our families & communities!

Keeping in mind services are broken up in three categories:

providing seniors with companionships, ensuring nutritional meals, personal grooming, hair bath, etc.! Another category, to provide career counseling, information on college grants, internships etc.!

Third category, establishing relationships with school administrators to introduce a volunteer learning service program! This program allows students to work in any community service capacity as long as you have working papers that is easily obtained by asking your guidance counselor at your school! I am hoping to develop & allow students to go into nursing homes to read to our seniors or just basically sit with them; introduce themselves & tell a senior person a bit about yourselves! Most importantly, support our students to learn about empathy compassion for others! Those types of engagements programs, could certainly lift one’s spirit up! Also, some seniors that do not have family or any other persons in theirs lives to care for them would greatly appreciate you! In return: students will receive extra credits that always look good when applying for high schools/college admissions, job applications b/c the interviewer is always looking at that person that goes that extra step, that extra mile and to be able to present yourself in the image that you see yourself! Exhibiting confidence and having a clear direction in terms of your goals, and what you hope to accomplish in life, learning communication & listening skills, talking to people helps to build confidence in our children especially, learning communication & listening skills! A Volunteer Service initiative program provides some incentives:

1) receiving $50 toward opening up a bank account

2) learning financial/banking information, credit, loans, mortgages,etc.!

3) credits towards high & college applications

4) college & job references ( usually a teacher, counselor, or even people in your community, to tell, how great you are as a person).

We love you guys but guess what, I have given you love, nutrition, & tools. Now it is time to show the world what you are made of: Principles, compassions dreams & the desires to help others! And just think, your generation will show inspiration, dreams & hope towards a better future as well as the next generation! Pass the baton! God Bless you on your journey towards adulthood! You can make a difference in your life & making the Earth, a better place to raise our families!
