We all consider volunteering abroad as a noble cause and recognise that it’s a win win situation for everyone. Students learn things they would never learn in school and they become an important part of a local society who really needs the help. But the following story goes far beyond all of this.

A Palo Alto High School senior called Tess Pang is going to execute one of the noblest causes I’ve ever seen. The youngster will pass her next year 5.000 miles away and travel to the Philippines and Malaysia. These are two countries which are suffering from a crisis at the moment.

In doing so, the young girl wants to help her homeland but of course there are some concerns that have to be kept in mind. Although the fact that she will be at risk in these countries, the brave girl says that this is the least of her concerns. She says that she is more worried about the possibility that she wouldn’t even be possible to help just one person.

Pang will work for the Presidential Advisor for the Peace Process in the region of Mindanao, with an uncle of hers, for the organization Philippine Projects and more. She says that when she goes to college, she wants to be able to argue with her professor and challenge her peers by talking about subjects that they have never experienced before.

This is a brave girl who is willing to make a difference and give a meaning to her life at a very young age. She is on a mission and this mission is helping the people of her homeland. She gets the opportunity to travel abroad, explore, see the world, learn new things and help a local community by going on this volunteer travel.
