A little sneak peek... 👀

Iyla and Jaden, our summer interns, are hard at work helping in lots of ways. But we wanted to share two special Kids on a Mission projects they are on working on—collecting books for kids in need and making fun craft kits for children staying in a local shelter.

We're so proud of their hard work and are excited to share more as these projects come together. ❤️

We're so proud of Touching Heart Junior Board member, Varsha Ayala! 🎉

Varsha was recently featured on ABC7 for co-creating RAPIDx, an innovative app designed to help first responders quickly access a patient's critical medical information during emergencies.

Her compassion and dedication to helping others are exactly what we love to see in our young leaders! We're excited to see the difference Varsha will continue to make in the world. ❤️👏

Touching Heart alums are doing amazing things!

We are so proud of Jason Yi, who just launched Verdant to modernize local government permitting with innovative technology.

We can't wait to see all that's ahead. ❤️
