What have you gained by participating in The Congressional Award?
Participating in The Congressional Award has helped me grow in independence, responsibility, and self-confidence. Most importantly, I learned that I can rely on myself and take on leadership roles within my family while still working as part of a team. The program has made me more mature, confident, and capable of handling larger responsibilities in the future. Volunteering taught me responsibility, communication, and how small actions can make a real difference for others. I also learned how to work well with different groups of people and how important it is to give back, especially when others depend on you.
