An artsy soul with a thoughtful, inquisitive nature, Navya combines her passion for creativity with a deep empathy for others' internal battles. Growing up, witnessing how hidden struggles affected her friends instilled in her the motto, “Be kind. You never know what someone else is going through.” With $500, she plans to buy 100 “I Believe In You” bracelets to distribute at community pop-ups, each accompanied by mental health resources. The bracelets, coded to track their journey, are exchanged as symbols of belief and encouragement, passing from one person to another. Navya will hold events at schools and youth centers, encouraging young people to reflect on their stories and share supportive messages. Just like revealing the bright green of a kiwi, Navya believes these bracelets can uncover the inner light in everyone, reminding them they’re never alone.
