" I am deeply committed to the mission of providing essential resources and opportunities to underprivileged students. I believe every child deserves the chance to reach their full potential, regardless of their background. Just as I have been fortunate to receive support that helped me achieve my goals, I am driven to give back by empowering young people, particularly those from disadvantaged communities, with the tools, mentorship, and encouragement they need to succeed. I want to be the person who believes in their dreams and supports them to thrive, just as others have done for me. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: We Care Act
My project focuses on bridging the gap between inequality by giving opportunities through electronic donations. Anyone who is unable to get access to technology due to their socioeconomic status deserves equal opportunities as everyone else.
