first day

[Liu Chong]

It's the first day of my intern; I'm going to stay here for almost two months. To be honest, I don't know what the company does before I came here. After Dan's introduction and Michael's video, an intern who has
worked here several years ago, I think I got the main point of this company.
That’s help youth in disadvantaged environment build up their aim and goal of
their life and help them to reach it with our connections in the world. I'm really happy that I'm going to be apart of this company. It means I'm going
to do something meaningful while some people at my age are wasting time and money
doing something useless.

There are many problems in our world and society. Each of them is an emergency;
however, individuals always think their strength is so weak when facing so many
problems, which is an excuse for doing nothing. But there are some people
making an effort. They know few individuals’ strength is weak, but a group of
people is strong enough to change something, I don’t wanna say they can change
the world, but it can change something, make some differences.

In this organization, we help people with our connections, which are the most important element in our life. We share it and benefit from it. I’m glad that my here and be a part of them. thanks for reading.

You've got the right idea. If we understand who we know, we can send messages and information that connect those people to other people we know, or to ideas that we share. As a result, the people we know begin to do more to expand the network, and to help programs like Cabrini Connections reach more kids living in high poverty neighborhoods.

Welcome! Great first post.

I like "...help youth in disadvantaged environment build up their aim and goal of
their life and help them to reach it with our connections in the world," and "a group of
people is strong enough to change something."
