STORIES TO INSPIRE YOURS

“It is easy to think of Love Your City as a movement that impacts the community and the participants of the programs…but it really, truly impacts the volunteers [too], my life changed because of Love Your City.”
MARIA LAO, CHANGEMAKER SINCE 2018
Instantly, Melissa felt suited for Love Your City because, “God had developed this passion in me for loving and caring for people who don’t have anyone alongside them, [someone] who might care to know the surface level things happening in their life but then also the things that are harder.”
MELISSA LONG, CHANGEMAKER SINCE 2022
I saw myself called to help young people, especially to find out and discover their purpose in life and then to reach their dreams.
IFEANYI ANEKE, CHANGEMAKER SINCE 2014
