SAIM ALI
My name is Saim Ali. I am 16 years old and a student at Tinian Junior Senior Highschool. I started volunteering at the Ohala foundation at the beginning of this year. I chose to help this foundation because it is a great way for me to give back to the community and help people in need. This foundation serves over 213 families, and 60% of those families have zero income. In this foundation, I help package food bags for the distribution hosted every second week Friday. I also help collect roadside donations and sell clothes in the Ohala closet to raise funds for the supplies and goodies needed for the food distribution. Overall, volunteering at the Ohala foundation not only benefits the community by providing food to families in need. However, it also creates meaningful experiences for volunteers, demonstrates a commitment to a cause, and helps individuals.

ISMAIL HOSSAIN
Hi there, I'm Ismail Hossain and I am a sophomore at Tinian Jr. Sr. High School. I started volunteering here at the Ohala Foundation because I wanted to get involved in the community and at the same time, help those that are really in need here in our community. As a volunteer, I help collect streetside donations, pack food bags for our numerous donations, and sometimes I help with what needs to be done in the Ohala Closet. I really enjoy volunteering here at the Ohala Foundation as we get to help and get involved with our community. And I hope that our work would inspire others to do the same.
