Acclaimed Author Delivers Inspiring Message to Girls Preparatory School

11/6/15 — Homa Tavangar recently paid a visit to Girls Preparatory School to deliver a simple message, “Be a friend to the whole human race.” Tavangar, author of the widely acclaimed Growing Up Global: Raising Children to be at Home in the World, helps audiences from CEOs to kindergartners learn and thrive in a global context.

Global citizens, she said, make a difference in the world through their empathy for others, sincere questions, and use of social media for social good. She encouraged the girls to look locally for opportunities to make new friends and discover shared ideas and ideals. She also challenged the girls to “pioneer innovation” and be change makers in their own community.
