CU Serves - Jen

Name: Jen Vernon
Year: Sophomore
Major: Early Childhood Education
Hometown: Lombard, IL
Participated in: Merillac House, three New Orleans trips


"I really enjoyed my trips to New Orleans because they gave me the opportunity to meet different people. There were so many different faces, and I was able to form friendships and bonds with many people. I realized, while cleaning houses, just how much we don't need. Seeing everything that others lost and just seeing all the destruction made me realize how much I do have. It definitely was a change of perspective. This experience motivates me to help even more!"
