South Forsyth Highschool is our 7th VT Seva youth Club in Atlanta. It is established on August 28, 2023. Please read the message below from our youth club President Nikhila, very inspirational Hello everyone, my name is Nikhila Mannepalli, and I am the President of South Forsyth High School VT Seva Club! Our now VT Seva members including myself have been separately trying to start this VT Seva club since January of this year, long before any of us knew there were others trying to start the club. It was a difficult process at that time, as no teacher was willing to sponsor the club, we hardly had any members, and the process was very scattered and unorganized. Throughout those experiences, each one of us learned a lot individually about communication, teamwork, and taking initiative, and got together to form a new, bigger SFHS VT Seva group at the beginning of August. Soon enough, with proper communication, productive meetings, discussions, and good organization, we were able to successfully find a sponsor, submit an application, and get the club approved today! What was taking us months of time as we attempted to start the club separately took mere weeks when we all came together to be a team.

On Mar 25th 2023, Lambert VT Seva participated in the Great Forsyth County Cleanup. We spent 4 hours cleaning up Bagley Road and was truly an eye-opening experience. It revealed how much we needed to take action to clean up our planet and how much effort that took. During the cleanup, we were able to work together, creating new bonds along the way. The Forsyth County officials were very supportive, and provided us with supplies and a free T-shirt! Overall, the Great FoCo Cleanup was an amazing way to have fun and help clean up the environment!
