Evan’s Testimonial:
Green City Force has meant so much to me in such a short period of time. Because of this program, I can go out into the world and proudly state that I have made a huge difference in my community. I can say that I am a better human being. I chose to become a Green City Force Corps Member because I wanted to make a change not only in the world I live in, but also within myself. Before GCF, my daily routine consisted of watching too much television and playing a lot of video games. I joined GCF to give my life meaning and to give meaning to the nickname that my brother gave me several years ago: EVAlutioN. I initially wondered why he would give me such a peculiar nickname. GCF made me realize it was because I have the power to provoke change and make a difference. Actually, we all possess that power. Whether we choose to utilize it is completely up to us. We all have the power to evolve positively within ourselves, and in turn make the world a better place. The only people we should focus on being better than are the people we were yesterday. This is a lesson I will cherish and take with me for the rest of my life. After GCF, I want to go back to college for the Spring 2015 semester and major in Communications and/or Sociology. I now know that the sky is the limit and the amount of possibilities are beyond the horizon. In closing, I want to thank the entire GCF staff for allowing me to break free from my shell and grow as a person; for giving me the opportunity to give back to the community which I care so deeply about. I want to thank my fellow Corps Members for embracing me with open arms and accepting me for who I am with all of my flaws. I have made lifelong friendships here at Green City Force, and I am so grateful for that!
