Ava

Doctoral student aspiring to be a pharmacist

"The KamnAnjali Foundation had a profound impact on my life, offering not only financial support but also a sense of belonging, encouragement, and emotional strength during some of my most challenging years. One aspect of the Foundation I value deeply is the safe, uplifting environment created by Kamna. It is an environment where vulnerability is welcomed, growth is encouraged, and every girl feels seen and supported. The mentorship sessions have provided me with invaluable life lessons. Topics such as emotional intelligence, leadership, and crisis management have equipped me with tools I actively use in my academic, personal, and professional life.

Being part of this initiative is important because it builds a community of young women who are strengthened by shared experiences. It reminds us that we never have to face hardships alone and that empowerment comes from connection, compassion, and collective resilience.

One of my most meaningful memories is attending the annual Daughters-Celebrating-Daughters event. It was a profound and heartwarming experience where words couldn’t fully capture the enormous amount of love, support, and unity that filled the room. The energy of that gathering reaffirmed just how special and powerful this foundation truly is."

A memory that I will forever hold close to my heart is the Daughters-Celebrating-Daughters event that was held in 2024.

Lindsey

Justice Studies student aspiring to be a lawyer

"As a first-generation student, KamnAnjali Foundation has offered me guidance and support for my academic journey and personal life, which has been very impactful in allowing me to grow in many ways. This foundation was more than just a group of girls; it felt more like a family who was ready to support you in any way possible. Without the KamnAnjali foundation I wouldn’t have had the same opportunities and knowledge that I have now since completing the mentorship program.

There were many great memories, as a matter of fact everything that had to do with the KamnAnjali foundation felt meaningful and special. As someone who lives on campus, it was easy to feel alone, but having the support of empowered women and students just like me created a sense of belonging and strength within me to push into spaces where everyone including me could be in. Our monthly meetings were filled with enjoyment and meaningful conversations, it really created a space to connect, learn from each other, and feel genuinely supported.

Being a part of this initiative has brought so much light to my life. It has pushed me to become the person I am today and the individual I still strive to become. Something I will always remember as being part of this initiative is when you surround yourself around individuals who are successful not only does it create a sense of motivation within yourself, but it allows you to see that the goals and dreams you have for yourself are more than possible.

My favorite memories were when we met for brunch and got to see the next group of girls who were going to be supported just as I was with the KamnAnjali Foundation. It brings warmth to my heart to see such brave and courageous girls come together and create a support system with each other."
