It is with huge smiles on our faces that we welcome Rebekah
Meads to the Youthlinc family as our International Service Intern. She recently returned home from our Youthlinc Cambodia trip, and was awarded with the Cambodia Team's All Star Volunteer. Bekah is a vibrant and passionate young lady, attending the
University of Utah, studying Health, Society, and Policy. She hopes that her major will allow her to do
what she loves-- humanitarian work-- and turn it into a career so she can do it
forever. After finishing her undergraduate
degree, Bekah hopes to get a Masters in Public Health and work in health
administration.
Bekah writes about her new internship: “I am so excited to be the International
Service Intern for Youthlinc. I know that this will be a great experience that
will allow me to become a more refined person, have great interactions with
amazing people, and give me valuable insight into the non-profit world.”
She continues that she will be “forever grateful for Youthlinc”,
because “it has changed my life. The mission of Youthlinc has opened my eyes to
what I want to get out of life. Youthlinc has helped me realize that there is
no faster way to true happiness then through meaningful service. Before my
interaction with Youthlinc service was something that I thought I should do,
then once I was accepted to Youthlinc it became something I had to do, and now
it is something that I never want to stop doing. I’ve never done as much
consistent service in my life as I am doing now, and I can honestly say that
I’ve never been happier than I am now either.”
We feel lucky to have Bekah as our intern, and look
forward to a successful, fun and productive year.
