Centa is a 2022 graduate of Mauldin High School and will attend Yale University in the fall. She volunteered with the Mauldin Rotary Club, as well as events such as Rise Against Hunger and the Hope Relay. Centa also helped teach Japanese classes with Upstate International and assisted ESL students with college applications.
Joining Centa in the internship program was Tikkala, who is a rising senior at Southside High School. She has served as a presenter at the 2022 Southeastern Regional Meeting of the American Chemical Society and plans to pursue a career in medicine. She has volunteered with several Upstate area nonprofits such as Ronald McDonald House, Harvest Hope Food Bank and Roper Mountain Science Center. Rishita also volunteered with the MOMs program and food pantry at the OBGYN clinic for Prisma Health.
During the internship, Centa and Tikkala worked with United Ministries to help develop guides for services such as emergency assistance and tuition assistance. The student leaders helped prepare housing units for families in transition and maintained an inventory of hygiene kits. They also participated in the program’s virtual leadership summit.
“Here at United Ministries, relationships are at the heart of what we do every single day,” said United Ministries Executive Director Lizzie Bebber. “Both Rishita and Jennifer had an incredible ability to establish genuine caring relationships with both staff and participants throughout their time with us. They went the extra mile to ensure participants had access to resources they need and were always willing to jump in and help staff and volunteers whenever needed. They brought so much enthusiasm and curiosity with a desire to truly understand the complexities of the issues that contributed to poverty in our community.”
Since its inception in 2004, the Student Leaders program has recognized 300 community-focused juniors and seniors from across the U.S. annually.
