The American Cancer Society is an organization that helps those with cancers try and recieve the right treatment to help fight their battle and I am trying to make every effort to put forth my time to make this action possible.

I'm trying to alleviate the burden that globalization has had on this rural village in India. These villagers are innovative and optimistic, but they are trapped in their own poverty from lack of government aid. I hope to provide opportunities for them to actualize their dreams through preventable and sustainable health practices and women empowerment through micro-entrepreneurship.

As of today, over 800 student organizations exist on the UC Berkeley campus, and many more are started every semester. We think that's too much.
And this situation also extends itself into the not-for-profit space where over 1 million charities every year, not to mention the fact that thousands more are launched every year. That is a waste of resources.
Instead of competition and crowdedness in the"doing good" space, we want to foster collaboration. We think that causes like Animal Welfare and Education and Human Rights can co-exist, without having to fight for funds or resources.

Every day, citizens — people like you and me, and businesses right in our community — volunteer in a Citizen School classroom to teach middle schoolers valuable, hands-on job and leadership skills, stimulate creativity, and enrich their daily curriculum to enhance student achievement. But there are so many more students that need our help. Normally, when I try and make something better, I just throw a little ketchup on it. But, when it comes to kids’ educations, we need more than ketchup. We need resources.

As a student-led organization at UC Davis, our goal is to help establish and maintain sustainable health care in rural villages in Honduras, the second poorest country in the western hemisphere. In addition to providing relief to a country where half the rural population lacks access to health care and the doctor to patient ratio is 1 to 1,667, we will be conducting health workshops in efforts to promote preventive medicine.

I put my leadership skills and dental experience together and took up a project for my Girl Scout Gold Award to sign-up neighborhood dentists to provide free dental checkup and treatments to financially distressed families. I visited numerous homeless centers and connected families to providing dentists in their area.
