Change the World
Sarah Gettel, MSW Candidate
I Want to Change the World by Fighting for Racial Justice
I love supporting youth organizing and building community power for racial justice. The work is important and directly impacts the lives of people I care about, which motivates me to keep going. I feel I have spent my whole life identifying what is important and working toward it.
Why I'm Here
The U-M School of Social Work felt like the right fit from the beginning. When I visited, I felt like I was a part of the community and could contribute here.
Impact of the Scholarships
New Leaders in African-Centered Social Work has reinforced my sense of purpose. Without the scholarship, I would not have had the same access to these amazing learning and growth opportunities.
