“I noticed that many people at our school–including myself–really care about major issues in our society, but there wasn’t a space where we could actually talk about them or take action. I wanted to build a community where students could speak up, be heard, and turn their ideas into real impact because I believe every one of us is capable of change,” Kim said.
