Why I joined RISHI
I joined Project RISHI because it seemed the best opportunity to find a South Asian community at USC. Everyone I’ve met in this org has been so kind and welcoming, and they’ve given me a space where I can embrace and enjoy my culture! Professionally, the work we do at RISHI also aligns deeply with my goals for the future. As a policy major, I am grateful for the opportunity to work with non-profits, develop research and project management skills, and give back to my community. RISHI is a great place to find amazing friends and be of service to others!
