SUMMARY
Reflection
My teammates were hesitant to help me with this project because their was no reward for them to complete it. However, after we did it I asked them if they still felt the same as they did. They told me they had a feeling of satisfaction like they had never had before. They told me it was because they knew they made a difference in their community regardless if they had no incentive.
Project Impact
All 4 of my football players that participated including myself collected enough trash to fill 4 trash bags, one trash bag per person.
