Why They Love Being a Student

“I love being a student because every day is a giant science experiment, and I even ask why grown-ups don’t know all the answers!” Since age four, Sritha explores everything from planets and volcanoes to the human body and our planet. She helps her older brother teach younger kids about sustainability and the Three R’s, turning every lesson into a hands on adventure that fuels her curiosity and inspires others.

Favorite Subject & Why

“Science is my favorite because my brain explodes with questions about planets, volcanoes, the human body , how did even humans came to Earth and I get to help others learn too!” She loves experimenting, observing nature, and tackling questions adults might not think to ask. Assisting her brother’s Biotech and environmental workshops, she teaches younger kids how to care for Earth, making Science exciting, practical, and fun.

How $20,000 Would Support Their Goals

“I’d buy a puppy and take it to space to explore planets-but really, it would fund STEM camps, hands on experiments, and helping kids learn about sustainability.” The award would let Sritha attend science camps, explore space and biology in depth, and expand the environmental workshops she supports with her brother. It would transform her curiosity into real learning and help younger students discover the joy of science too.
