" Working with various people with the same mindset as I am motivates me. I am highly flexible and can get along with other people so well. I am mostly excited to interact and network with other young minds to make the world a better place for tomorrow! "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Lifting Angels Mental Health Project
My project aimed at assisting children in schools with special needs in their day to day learning activities. This included engaging them in play learning using toys and also getting to understand their individual needs.
We provided them with Lego toys as well as storybooks and art and craft activities.
The project also included creating awareness on their general personal hygiene such as the best way to wash hands after playing.
If it comes to a success, we can better understand these angels with special needs better.
