Girl Scouts of West Central 佛罗里达 granted Isha Patel ’24 a 2023 Girl Scout Gold Award, 女童子军中最负盛名的奖项. Patel achieved this remarkable honor through a project that served as her Berkeley 全球学者 project and helps victims of human trafficking. 

帕特尔与非洲希望之乐合作, a nonprofit that focuses on rescuing and rehabbing children who were victims of human trafficking, 协助建立一个游戏治疗中心. 她花光了她所有的生日钱, 加上家人和朋友的捐赠, 为游戏治疗中心买东西. Then she hand-delivered them in large duffel bags during her family’s trip to Africa. 另外, she was invited to speak in front of government officials, 新闻机构, and the public at Frolics of Hope Africa’s conference on human trafficking.

Patel’s story was also covered in a video segment on 频谱湾新闻九.
