Led By Children, For Children

Testimonials

PURE YOUTH has been such a fantastic journey for me. As a group, we have done so much, from organizing an Indian Sweets n’ Snacks fundraiser to collecting toys to give to children in hospitals. Even though we are a newly found chapter, we all still work closely together to make a difference in the world around us. Pure YOUTH has taught me so much and made me see the world from a different perspective. Our achievements in only one service year reflect our overall commitment and the potential we have. As we journey on, I am so excited to be a part of a group driven by compassion and determination to make a meaningful change. The exposure Pure YOUTH provides us allows us to see other parts of the world, and how fortunate we are. It teaches us to be grateful for what we have and to use it to help others around the world. Looking forward, I am excited to see the greater impact we will make together.

Being a part of Pure YOUTH has been one of the best choices I've made. We've shared delicious traditional Indian treats like laddus and samosas and helped kids in hospitals by giving them thoughtful gifts. Our group is really dedicated to doing good things that matter, and we stick to it. Despite being a newly established chapter within the past year, our collective commitment to forging a brighter path for those facing challenges is truly inspiring. I'm really thankful I got to join because I've learned a bunch of new skills and I've started thinking about things in a different way. The opportunity to be part of this organization has not only equipped me with valuable skills but has also prompted me to view the world through a different lens. Our chapter has accomplished a lot of great things, and I'm excited to see all the great things it'll do in the future.

PURE Youth has been one of the best decisions I have taken in my life. From handing cards and treats to firefighters and police officers to selling traditional Indian foods such as laddus and samosas to donating gifts to child homes, our chapter has put tons of effort into striving for a good cause. Despite being a new chapter that had just started in the past year, the members of the group are already so close to each other and committed to providing a better future for those who are struggling. I am so grateful for having the opportunity to join this organization and work towards a more significant cause because it has taught me various skills and given me the chance to look back at myself and think differently. This Katy chapter has achieved and accomplished so much on its own in its first year, and I can’t wait to see what contributions it will make in the future.

Pure Youth has helped me a lot in the past two years. I learned about different ways to use online tech to make flyers, posters, etc. I also learned about different ways to do fundraisers and how to earn money for multiple fundraiser goals. It helped me unlock a new creative thinking section in my mind. Even though I'm not a chapter leader or any leader in any way, I still think I get a fair amount of decision-making and choices. I was successfully able to reach my goal of 26+ hours of pure work which got me a presidential award last year, hopefully, I can this year as well. I hope we can keep up or even expand the amount of food in this world. After finishing something, I get the enjoyment factor that we helped someone in this world that was struggling.

I joined PURE Youth because I deeply believe in its cause to make the world a better place by improving the lives of those in need. It brings me so much joy to know that so many people all around the world are benefitting because of the fundraisers and other projects we do in PURE. Even though we are in a new chapter, I have already made several cherishable memories with the PURE projects with fellow ambassadors and have not regretted being an ambassador for even a moment. There are many things I learned in this organization that I will carry with me throughout my life. I have always loved volunteering and I believe PURE is a place where I can do this and maximize the good in the world. I will continue to volunteer in my life at every opportunity I get because PURE has inspired me to keep changing the world into a better place and to keep helping those in need as there will always be someone who may need your help.
