my name is lana nyguen. i was born and raised in the tenderloin district of san francisco and grew up as a low income student. i constantly felt the impacts of my family's financial struggle and at times didn't even think higher education was a possibility, so i would like to send a warm thank you to mayor london breed for the honor of women's history month as it is something i would have never expected in a million years. april of last year, 2020, i co-founded supply hope info, a passion project aimed to mitigate educational disparities. and i am so proud to say that within less than a year, we have supported almost 2,000 in-need students, raised over $40,000, and shared our mission globally. throughout this, i have received unconditional support from my friend, family, teachers and community. they have truly changed my life. now i view my future as one filled with possibilities. i continue to be inspired by all the women around me who are pushing our generation forward. as i enter the next few major years
