" Being a Millennium Fellow will enhance my leadership skills to have a greater social impact in my community. Through Webinars and guidance from expertise in the field, I will gain the necessary tools to be prepared for enrollment in furture careers. Adaptability and creativity are my guiding skills to be successful. What is important for me is the process of reaching the targeted goal. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Nshira
So many small businesses have suffered and continue to suffer the consequences of the Beirut blast and economic recession. My goal is to launch an Instagram page, as a starting point at least, in which my friends and I are able to try, interview, explore, and promote these enterprises. Hopefully through word of mouth and social media circulation, we would be able to reach new groups of potential customers and people open to help these stores and gravitate their attention towards them. If proven to be beneficial on a larger scale, then we could possibly collaborate with Non-Governmental Organizations that have similar ideas and stances aligning with those of this project.
