New York City
Go ForeFront
June 2017
Improving Education in Rural India
GoForeFront has been blazing the trail, showing the world how a small team of passionate volunteers could transform a community in rural India with:
Clean Water / Sanitation
Education for Youth and Adults
Affordable Healthcare
Women Empowerment
That’s why I was excited to inspire more change agents and dream funders with my own story of community change.
Keynote Speech (Excerpts)

“Education is the set of keys. Transformational keys that has also transformed over 500 Bronx, New York, community members with Equality's Adult Education programs. Keys that we now send 8,165 miles away.”
As Robert Kennedy once stated, “Few will have the greatness to bend history itself, but each of us can work to change a small portion of events...It is from numberless, diverse acts of courage, and belief that human human history is shaped…”
“Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope and those build a current that can can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance.”
