Esha has demonstrated admirable commitment to and passion for making a positive impact in the community. In particular, she has sought to foster inclusivity, support, and empowerment for women who are often overlooked. For example, she co-founded the non-profit Global Citizen Initiative in March 2024; the group's first project was collecting donations to create Mother's Day gift baskets for a Salvation Army charity that reached out to women and children who have been survivors of domestic abuse. In addition, as an executive member of our school's Women Empowerment Club, Esha has facilitated a breast cancer awareness fundraiser, a Christmas gingerbread buyout, and a Mother's Day flower sale. Finally, she has volunteered with OneProsper International as an online English tutor for girls in rural India who have limited access to schools, an opportunity which allows her to teach an essential skill as well as act as a valuable role model.
Esha is a confident, independent, motivated young lady who embodies, recognizes and inspires female resilience and strength, both in the local community and beyond. She is therefore a true difference-maker! Esha is also a strong academically: both her demanding academic schedule, and her current average of 92%, are additional evidence of her ability and promise as a student and citizen.
