Making a Difference
by Pat Geschke and Dawn Allar on 2/28/2025 Length: 30 MinutesHow does a passion for helping others transform into life-changing action? In Episode 6: Making a Difference, we explore this question through the inspiring story of BHS senior Abby Karim, a key member of the "Brunswick for a Brighter Future" team. Listen as Abby shares her journey with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Student Visionaries of the Year campaign, where she and 30 fellow students are working toward an ambitious $100,000 fundraising goal to fight blood cancer. Her story beautifully illustrates the Journey of a Blue Devil competencies, particularly empathy, as she translates compassion into concrete action. From her involvement in sports and orchestra to her enthusiasm for Project Lead the Way, Abby reveals how Brunswick's educational environment has nurtured her desire to make a difference—a passion she plans to carry into a future medical career. This episode showcases how our students are not just preparing for the world but actively working to improve it, embodying the spirit of empathy and responsibility that defines our Blue Devil community.
