Her Work
Lily started her first non-profit, Wrapped in God’s Warmth, to help the less fortunate through the colder months. She started it when she was 12 years old and has continued to operate it to this day. P.E.E.P. is the next big project that Lily created to target the question, “What is my purpose?”
Lily hopes this program will help students who feel overwhelmed with the fear of what the future holds, by offering the proper exposure and experiences within the workforce, that they know what they want to do.
Future plans
Lily hopes to continue to grow P.E.E.P. and Wrapped in God’s Warmth throughout the rest of her high school and college career. She plans on majoring in Business Economics and minoring in Spanish. She hopes to eventually attend Law School and then work in the government. Lily wants to be able to change the world for the better and help people see the importance in getting the proper exposure to various careers as an student.
