Manasi Trivedi, Volunteer with Detroit Action center

Why I volunteer for CRY America?
We are so privileged to have what we want and be where we are. I always feel like we need to give it back to complete the circle. We had it when we needed it now we need to pass it forward. I volunteer for CRY America because I know how education can change a child's
life. CRY America helps fix the problem from roots up.


What do I understand about child rights?
Equal Child Rights should be a basic privilege and yet so many children are deprived of it. CRY does a good job of restoring these rights to underprivileged children.


The rewards of volunteering for CRY America?
I know that when I wake up, I know for sure I'd have changed something. That feeling itself is the best happiness I can give myself.  I met so many other volunteers and it is always interesting to see that irrespective of our diverse backgrounds, and experiences, we all work in unison towards a common goal – a better today and tomorrow.
