Many teenagers take the summer months to hang out with friends, do nothing or find a job to earn some extra money. For some teens, volunteering is a way to fill the summer months with something to do, while feeling good about themselves.
Sixteen-year-old Issaquah triplets — Areesa, Selina and Khalil Somani — volunteered at Evergreen Hospital Medical Center in Kirkland for four hours once a week throughout the summer.
“It’s really nice to feel like you’re needed somewhere,” Areesa said.
The teens found out about volunteering at Evergreen through their mom, who works at the hospital, and told them how great it was and how fun it would be to volunteer, Khalil said.
