Shraavya Pydisetti started her nonprofit organization Project Querencia. The junior at Coppell High School said she just wanted a way to give back to the community that has given her so much.
They also created packages for the teachers who have played such an essential role in their lives.
“As high schoolers, we know that making a difference is possible, and that we are the ones who can achieve it,” Pydisetti said when asked why she has chosen to spend her time with these projects. The third project was to provide hygiene kits with treats for people who are without a home in the community. In that same project, they collected more than 300 cans to Metrocrest for their holiday food drive.
To date, organization has been able to create over 3500 packages and their volunteers have spent over 3000 hours volunteering in just one year. Moving forward, this team is looking forward to beginning larger initiatives to help the DFW area at a larger scale and leaving a permanent positive impact.
