" Being part of the Millennium Fellow will enhance my skills in leadership and collaboration. The skills I gain from the Fellow will make my social impact on orphanages and foster care to me more align with the UN Sustainable Goals. I am excited to improve my leadership and be part of these projects. "

Millennium Fellowship Project: E.C Foundation

To make an impact, cardboard donation boxes have been placed around my university campus to encourage my peers and community to join me in this cause. These boxes serve as a collection point for items that children need, such as toys, clothes, and sanitary supplies, to be donated to institutions and shelters to support children.
Initially, I plan to collaborate with already established organizations focusing on helping needy children. Working in these organizations will allow me to learn from their experiences and understand their operations so I can strengthen my approach and, in the future, have a good foundation to operate independently and continue to grow this mission.
It hasn't been easy to get my project up and running, it took me a couple weeks to actually have something concrete, but all i needed was time and persistence.
