Have you continued any of your Award activities? If so, what:
Yes. While doing the bronze award, I was volunteering with a friend, and together we collected clothing, books and other things which we gave to people in need around our individual communities. Even after that award and activity were finished, I have still continued to gather such items and give them to people in need of them, some of which i meet on a daily basis.
Tell us the story behind your photo:
This was after a long 3 hour trek, and my friend, like the rest of us, was so completely tired, that she fell asleep in the bus on the way back home.
