What they're saying:

“Seeing the girls’ eyes light up when they realize they are smart, they are strong, and they are beautiful is such a rewarding feeling. Volunteering with Project Scientist gave me immeasurable joy and hope for a brighter future.”

"When I asked the girls if they spoke a language other than English. They all did, just like me. I felt like I was connecting with the girls and showing them how being bilingual was an asset."
