" I am excited to be a Millennium Fellow because it allows me to grow as a leader while using my passion for public health to make a real difference in my community. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: AMIWAF SCHOOL HEALTH INITIATIVE (ASHI)
I'm working on a project to teach important health topics to students in a secondary school. I want to create a fun and engaging program that helps young people understand things like hygiene, mental health, nutrition, and how to take care of their bodies. The idea is to make health education fun, relatable, and something they can actually use in their daily lives. I’m applying for the MCN Fellowship to help me bring this idea to life and make a real difference in the school community.
