Reflect on a time you helped someone by Ka'Nijah - March 2026 Scholarship Essay

ESSAY
The time I helped someone in a meaningful way is when I used to go to my granny's house to help her. I didn't mind because I was not doing anything but if I was I would have made time to help her because we be having fun and listening to music and I was laughing. Because when she is taking her breaks and she is taking a long break or we just be talking about old stuff or new things. For example, things we would want to do in life even if our life already started and I tell her that I want to help people that helped me just to see them smile about me giving back to them. Just to think about me graduating and me doing my dream job with my nice future house, also getting my mom a nice house with her favorite car and an audi and updating my granny’s house. And after all of that she wants to pay me but i don’t want her to pay because I say oh granny you don’t have to pay me and she be like you helped me and she start naming things i probably want to get. And I just think about it after saying no and I eventually just take it and when I do take the money I save it for a long time then I end up sending it on something that I want. And after all of that we just chill and talk about what we tried and how i am happy that it was friday because I don’t have to get up and we just start laughing again.
