Marcy is running for student body president. Which sentence in this excerpt from her campaign speech uses parallel structure? Hi

, I’m Marcy! Many of you know me from your ninth grade classes. I’m running for student body president because I know I can make a positive difference for you, my fellow students, and for the school. I think I will make a good president because I am honest, trustworthy, and I’m behaving responsibly. I will set a good example for the school. I have many plans for the student council, such as making the council more organized, to ensure everyone has a voice, and I’ll be managing meetings more efficiently. I will take your suggestions into consideration and try to implement as many as possible. I will convince the school board to install vending machines with healthier snacks in the school cafeteria and ensuring that they review the cafeteria lunch menu to include healthier meal options. A healthy student body is a happy student body! I also plan to organize more school dances and give my fellow students more opportunities to interact socially.

I can tell you what it's not if you're having trouble understanding parallel structure...

"I think I will make a good president because I am honest, trustworthy, and I’m behaving responsibly.<span>"
If this was using parallel structure, it would be "...</span>because I am honest, trustworthy, and responsible." 

"<span>I have many plans for the student council, such as making the council more organized, to ensure everyone has a voice, and I’ll be managing meetings more efficiently."
</span>For this, it'd have to be, "...such as making the council more organized, ensuring everyone has a voice, managing meetings more efficiently."

I'm not sure which sentence it actually is though. It's possible it's the last sentence.
