WHAT STUDENTS ARE SAYIN’
Volunteering as an ambassador for hEr VOLUTION has been one of my greatest experiences. For the first time in my life, I organized a large-scale event to promote values in which I strongly believed. Looking at the audience you've influenced is extremely rewarding. Not to mention how exciting it has been to see myself improve in areas such as public speaking, professional interactions, and team collaboration. Support hEr VOLUTION!
