Feedback

“Despite only being involved for a short period of time, I have successfully mentored a bunch of amazing kids to become leaders not only amongst their peers and have seen them step out of their comfort zone. With faith, patience and true perseverance, I’ve seen how these kids have blossomed into wonderful individuals and it gives me sheer joy to be part of their success stories.”  – Krishantini
