About Cherry:

Cherry loves communicating with people and reading news articles related to environmental issues or governmental policies from around the world. Cherry believes this is how she got to build her knowledge and passion for environmental activism. This year, Cherry first got to know of Global Social Leaders, and fell in love with the GSL movement. "Initially, my teacher (Ms. Rosanna Luzarraga) introduced me to GSL, telling me to take a look at its website when I am free from schoolwork. As soon as I was fully informed of what GSL does, I knew joining the GSL Competition would be a life-changer for me; and as I expected, it was a life-changer. I found my true, potential self through joining the GSL movement."
