Big opportunities lead to big impact.

We're proud to celebrate one of our students, Subigya Paudel, who recently attended the World Youth Bank Group Summit in Washington, D.C., where young leaders from around the world came together to tackle today's biggest challenges.

Here's what she had to say about the experience:
"I spent my week working alongside brilliant minds to show that young people shouldn't just be a part of the conversation; we should be right there co-designing the global, economic, and industrial policies that affect our lives."

At SFBU, we're committed to giving students opportunities to learn, lead, and build successful careers—wherever their ambitions take them.

Congratulations on representing SFBU on the global stage!
