On Martin Luther King Day, the Young Leaders Program at Young Scholars went to Ms. Johnson's house to try to clean up her care center. Ms. Johnson has been giving to the needy for over 30 years at her house, the Johnson Concern and Care Center in Philadelphia.
At first, the house was a mess, but Young Leaders came to help out. I went with my brother Dominiq, my friend Teylor, the leaders: Mr. Barnes and Ms .Kenuk. Also, my uncle was there and lots of other people who signed up for the Martin Luther King Day of Service. The main reason we went there was because we all wanted to help out Mrs. Johnson.
I helped fold up clothes, took out some trash, and I put lots of shoes in a bag. The best lesson to learn from the trip is that "the world does not revolve around you" and helping out is important. The best moment of the day was helping out Mrs. Johnson out with everything.
We can all do community service, help out at a homeless shelter, or give to the poor.
