Jeremiah chose to focus on the elderly inspired by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 3, which emphasizes health during the global pandemic, believing in the importance of not neglecting the older population.
As he prepares for college, Jeremiah plans to continue his service work and encourages other students to do the same, invoking Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s words about the importance of serving others.
Looking ahead, Jeremiah is excited to further his education and continue his service through his social enterprise, J8 Creative, which provides multimedia and content creation solutions, with a portion of the proceeds supporting elderly residents in senior living facilities.
