Dara of Cambodia — The Girl Who Makes Everyone Feel Included

Dara of Cambodia — The Girl Who Makes Everyone Feel Included

Age: 11
Country: Cambodia

When Dara was little, grown-ups worried she might miss things.

Instead...

She noticed different things.

The smile someone tried to hide.

The friend sitting alone.

The little sister pretending she wasn't frustrated because her braid kept coming undone.

Dara has patient hands.

When she braids someone's hair, she never rushes.

She talks while she works.

About school.

About books.

About what clouds look like today.

Sometimes they laugh so hard she has to start the braid all over again.

Neither of them minds.

She wears hearing technology that helps her hear more of the world around her.

But Dara says listening has never been only about ears.

It's about paying attention.

To faces.

To kindness.

To people who need someone beside them.

Someday Dara hopes to become a teacher.

She wants every child who walks into her classroom to feel like they belong before they even sit down.

She thinks learning begins there.

With feeling welcome.

And with knowing someone is happy you came.

Her Dream

To become a teacher who helps every child feel seen and included.

Her Wonder

"How many wonderful things can happen when everyone feels like they belong?"
