What does it mean to volunteer?  Why would Drew require you volunteer for 100 hours during your high school career?  

To volunteer means to give your time and effort to help others or contribute to a cause without expecting payment. It’s about making a positive impact in your community, gaining new experiences, and developing a sense of responsibility and empathy. Drew likely requires students to complete 100 hours of volunteer work during high school to encourage civic engagement, build character, and help students develop leadership and teamwork skills. Volunteering also exposes students to different perspectives and real-world challenges, preparing them to be active, compassionate members of society. Plus, it allows students to explore their interests, gain hands-on experience, and strengthen their resumes and college applications.
