Voices of Humanity is about building an empowered world, where everyone matters. From Lexington, USA to Dhaka, Bangladesh, I spent my past summer exploring how technology can strengthen communities across generations and borders. I’m Fariza Ellahi, a 16-year-old Lexington resident, co-founder of Little Founders for Change, a charity initiative founded in 2017, and editor of Fariza’s Corner, a youth newsletter launched in 2020.

At the Lexington Community Center, I led AI workshops for senior citizens, introducing easy, practical tools to simplify everyday life. I also guided WIC staff through webinars, showcasing how technology can enhance their work, and have supported children at an orphanage in Bangladesh, using digital tools to customize interactive English lessons. Moreover, I have collaborated with Lex Media, leading creative video and podcast projects.

For me, every project with the Voices of Humanity initiative is part of a larger journey to create a kinder, more connected world.
