TESTIMONIALS
What I liked about the webinar is how the presenters were very comfortable talking to us young youths. This made me feel so much more better knowing they were comfortable and made me feel welcome. Another is the different stories I was able to hear from each presenter, because of Covid-19 it wasn't going so greatly for some individuals and many went through a hard time where they learned to cope and became stronger person! I also enjoyed the different facts that were told and I felt as if I learned something new. This also encourages me to try out for an organization as the presenters were so young and dedicated!

I liked that there were different organizations and the webinar was the product of their work, which is different than an organization hosting a webinar alone. I liked the slide design and I liked the kahoot game, and the kind members of these organizations.
