" Public speaking and public health advocacy are seated at the core of what I do as I believe everyone deserves a fighting chance at the hurdles of life irrespective of gender and age. Millennium Fellowship offers me the opportunity to 'major on my majors'. Being a Millennium Fellow would provide me with an avenue for growth and increment in my proficiency as well as guide me in the achieving of these goals. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Healthy Minds, Bright Future
Our Healthy Minds, Bright Future project empowered our community with essential life skills, promoting healthy habits and wellness from a young age. We educated children on crucial practices like regular brushing, proper bathing, and hand hygiene, providing them with tools like toothbrushes, toothpaste, notebooks, and pencils to reinforce these habits.
We conducted a successful outreach program at two schools, where we educated students on essential hygiene practices, including proper handwashing techniques and oral care. To support their learning, we donated notebooks, pencils, and other materials to the children and schools. We also taught engaging songs and activities to reinforce these habits, making it easier for them to remember and incorporate into their daily routines. Although we had planned to visit more schools, the exam schedules of many institutions limited our reach. Nonetheless, we're thrilled with the impact we made, and it's heartening to hear that our efforts have stuck with the kids - we've even received appreciation from some of them since our visit!
