My name is Manal Abduraik, and I am a freshman student at Florida State University. During my freshman year, I have been actively involved in several impactful programs on campus. I am a proud CARE ‘25 student and a member of the Service Scholars Program, a volunteer-based initiative that focuses on leadership and community engagement. I am also a UROP (Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program) student, where I hope to gain valuable research skills and hands-on academic experience.
