Review for TeachAids, Stanford, CA, USA
I started volunteering for TeachAids in its early days, back when Piya Sorcar was building it brick by brick. We were neighbors, so I’d often get surprise knocks on my door whenever there was exciting news to share! I’ll never forget the day TeachAids received its 501(c)(3) status—Piya came running over, and we jumped up and down together on my front stoop, celebrating the milestone. There were many moments like that—when she secured an incredible celebrity voice, or got her very first office on Sand Hill Road and countless more. Over the years, TeachAids has grown and evolved, but Piya has remained the same: laser-focused on the impact her work has on the people she’s trying to help, and that’s what makes TeachAids such an incredible organization to be part of. Seventeen years later, I had the pleasure of watching my son volunteer for TeachAids to help rebuild their website. What a full circle moment!
