One of my journey's most rewarding moments was leading Pastries City. What started out as a straightforward concept—baking and selling pastries for charity—developed into a project that brought people together via creativity and goodwill. I discovered that, when created with love, even tiny, handcrafted items might have profound significance.

Long nights spent honing recipes, planning sales, and interacting with customers online taught me the value of teamwork and tenacity. The joy on the faces of youngsters who got new school supplies served as a reminder to me that entrepreneurship can serve as a bridge of compassion in addition to making money. I learned from Pastries City that sharing what you love with others is frequently the first step toward making a significant difference.
