Everyone who knows me knows that with Climb for a Child, I’ve been able to attend international schools, travel the world, and study abroad. Isn’t that what the program is all about—enrolling underprivileged children in better schools? But there is so much more that the outside world is unaware of.
I finally realized that I wasn’t defined by grades. I could be more, so I went out into the world and became a daughter, a sister, a cook, a seamstress, a volunteer, and a leader. Beyond stretching my abilities to the fullest, the program provided a second family with similar backgrounds and the same goal of eradicating poverty. A family of wise and considerate people. I’ve learned love, resilience, how to live with others, how to help one another, and, most importantly, gratitude as a result of the Climb for a Child family.
