Although Lefebvre is devoted to joining the Peace Corps, her parents aren’t so sure about her decision.
“My mom is scared about me wanting to join the Peace Corps. She is always telling me that what those people go through is hard and that she doesn’t want me to go through it, but I ask her why should they?”
Lefebvre wants to make an impact and said she feels that she would do so best by getting involved with teaching others.
“I understand why she feels the inclination to join the Peace Corps because she cares about people and likes helping them out. She is interested in the greater good of mankind,” Murali said.
Liam Leslie, senior, and friend of Lefebvre’s, supports her decision as well.
“I think she’d do well working in the Peace Corps because she cares about people, Leslie said. She cares about people and it suits her personality well. I’m not at all surprised by her decision. Wanting to help others is very much like something she’d do.”
