Paulina Jedrzejowski

Paulina is passionate about learning how the growth of the economy in developing countries affects social problems within these countries. Paulina has been involved in her community through preparing food for the homeless with the Global Kids Organizations, leading workshops and conferences on Sexual Health Education, restoring a rundown bus shelter, leading the largest student run conference in New York City on Youth Activism, petitioning for the Arms Trade Treaty, and interning at the Council on Foreign Relations. Paulina is also the President of the Dreamers Club through which she advocates for the passage of the Dream Act. Paulina wants to learn about Brazilian culture and leave an imprint on her community. Her favorite quote is the following: "To come to know everything, do not want to know something in nothing. To come to have everything do not want to have something in nothing. To come to be everything do not want to be something in nothing" - Karol Wojtyla (Pope John Paul II)
