Volunteer Work

I was a member of National Charity League from June 2017- June 2023. NCL is a multigenerational philanthropic organization that actively works to promote human welfare. Each chapter is made up of mothers and daughters that serve the community together while the girls serve leadership roles. I specifically dedicated time to working at House of Hope, helping people with food insecurity. Inspired to create a larger variety of options for the people in need, I created a self-driven organization, Garden Table, where I picked excess fruit from community backyards and donated the produce to House of Hope.
