Ale Foresto, Rachel Mount, Arianna Davis, helping to make the cards on the 2nd floor of Pop Burger, at the Nov. 1 She's the First Soiree
Over the Thanksgiving holiday, Shanti Bhavan volunteer Summer (who plays the cello in Broadway orchestras!), traveled from New York City to India, where she visited the girls at our wonderful partner school! She met up with our guest blogger, Natasha Khanna, and delivered the cards that guests of the She’s the First Soiree had made for the girls. If you didn’t hear the big announcement last month, the Soiree sponsored a girl at Shanti Bhavan — and we will be matched up with her shortly!
The cards were tacked to a bulletin board and the girls read them all. The reactions are captured on video below. Isn’t it magical how video brings us full-circle, helping us truly know the girls we support, who live at least a 14-hour flight away? In the video, the girls point out favorite notes, one written by Gennifer Delman (She’s the First*{Hofstra} founder/president) and another that simply says a common catch phrase around the She’s the First team: “You rock!”
