And that's what makes our community so special is that once you're part of it, you never leave. And so I'm so excited to see what all of you do in your next journey with Riley's Way.

Anika Nayak: As an Alum, I find it really rewarding to help other Alums and give back to the Riley's Way community, whether it's with programming or planning the Youth Leadership Retreat or planning Alumni Regional events. It's really special to be a part of this community and work in many different capacities to really continue the circle of kindness that we all appreciate and enjoy.
Phoebe Grace Aseoche: When I think of how me being a member of Riley's Way and our Alumni Community, what does that mean to me, I think of the growth in the past few years since I've been a part of Riley's Way. I've been a part of Riley's Way since I was a Council Member in high school and to see my growth and to see other people's growth, I think that's really important and to kind of grow with each other, whether it's some skills that you've adapted over the years or have improved on. And I think that the Alumni Community definitely like helps with that.
Agha Haider : Being a member of the Riley's Way Alumni community means that I'm really able to meet people from across the world who are also passionate about being a kind leader and just making a change within their community or beyond their community. I think Riley's Way is such an incredible group of people who are really working to change the world. I think that being a part of the Alumni Community will allow me to continue being a kind leader, continuing to just be involved in my community while also learning more and seeing what other people do and cheering them on along the way. I think as we build this Alumni Community, it will be a great opportunity to just work with other people and just see what other people continue to do throughout their life.
