I was born in India. This is part of my story. Here I am at 3 years old - curious, spunky, and clueless as to what the future would hold. When I was 9, my family immigrated to the United States. It was tough. My parents came to a foreign land and had no connections, no money, and two little kids to feed. As I looked around, I saw their struggles. I didn’t want to add to them, but I was struggling. I had no friends. I was often bullied and felt like a cultural misfit. Enter Communities in School who had a special program for “kids like me” - and it’s one of those programs that you often hear about but don’t always fully understand the impact. Today, as a successful entrepreneur, I get to give back. I’ve partnered with Vibha and CIS to give back so hopefully other kids like me can find a ray of hope in their own darkness. I’m matching every single donation AND for every comment left on this post, I’ll donate $10 on your behalf. Link is in the comment. Whether you donate or not, all I ask for is your attention to this cause. Because, yes, it makes a difference. I’m proof. 🙏🏽 Update: Together, we raised over $80k for kids in need! Thank you!💗
