Arias helps provide children living with critical illnesses an experience that transforms their lives, strengthens families and brings communities together. 鈥淎 wish has tangible effects not only on a child鈥檚 mental and physical health, but on their family 鈥� moms, dads, brothers, sisters and grandparents. And on the greater community that surrounds them.鈥�
"When I was ten, I held a plant in my hands and had the first thoughts of what I wanted to do in the future, without knowing what science was. When I was in high school, I had my hypothesis, telling myself that my hardship as an immigrant, first-generation student without any guidance would not allow me to get into science. Yet now, I'm still on that path, proud to be a Husky 100 student, doing what my ten-year-old self dreamt of after being guided and mentored by awesome, kind people. "
