About the Author

My name is Chandler Elias, I am a sophomore majoring in biology here at UCF. I completed my service with 7 Cups. I would like to thank the members that I talked to that trusted me with information when they were feeling vulnerable.

Abstract, Summary, or Creative Statement

The purpose of my project was to volunteer at in a healthcare setting which was required for the specific section of LDR 3215 that I took this semester. Key activities that I did were chatting through the online forum with people who needed someone to help them feel supported in challenging moments that they were facing. I learned how big of a difference chatting with someone even just for a few minutes can make in someone’s life. I also how important it is for our mental health to have someone who will listen to us. I am so grateful for the experiences that I had volunteering with 7 cups.
