Overview
The Ajvir Singh Sandhu Leadership Foundation helped Rachel Ojo, 21, attend the annual Cop28 United Nations Climate Change Conference in Dubai as an official youth delegate.
Why did the Foundation support?
Rachel contacted AjvirLF and was seeking financial support to attend the global conference. Rachel’s application highlighted her determination to make an impact on her local community and beyond. She stood out as someone who could clearly articulate her values around using leadership to make a positive difference and this aligned well with the Foundation’s core aims. Rachel demonstrated a strong commitment to volunteering in the local community and empowering the people around her having previously joined Basildon Youth Council and led a project on anti-bullying used by Essex Police in local schools.
Results?
As Rachel continues to expand her horizons, the Foundation’s funding has allowed her to make impact at the highest level of decision-making. We look forward to continuing our partnership with Rachel and seeing what she does next!
