We have seen firsthand the power of practicing human values in transforming communities. If both students and teachers practice human values, it affects the environment of the whole classroom and the entire school. These positive changes continue even when students go out into their own communities! We invite you to partner with us on this Giving Tuesday in that impact.
Together, we can change the world!
“thank you” in advance for your generosity & support.
Board Chair of the Human Values Collective (HVC)
For the last 2 years, I have been proudly serving as Board Chair of Human Values Collective (HVC). In my role, I strive to embody HVC’s approach to building a more just and inclusive world, which is why I’ve also spent the last two years participating in our mentorship program alongside our community members. My life, leadership, and healing journey have all been changed in ways I never imagined! I’ve been able to tap into the self-love, compassion, and acceptance that were buried beneath the weight of living in our world as a neurodivergent, LGBTQ+ child of immigrants with chronic illnesses and invisible disabilities.
