Focus: Addressing food insecurity, youth development, and AAPI advocacy in underserved communities.
I supported the Community First Food Pantry, which addresses food insecurity in NYC by providing fresh, culturally appropriate food and essential resources. I coordinated events and outreach, ensuring our programs ran smoothly and effectively served the community.
This project is important as it tackles food insecurity and well-being. I learned the value of community support and collaboration in creating meaningful change, which has deepened my commitment to social justice and civic engagement, shaping my perspective on addressing societal challenges.
