Shreyaa and Esha Venkat grew up in the world of volunteering. Yet, as they grew older, they discovered a fundamental problem with the community service system; people were volunteering simply for hours. To fix this problem, they created NEST4US, their 501(c)3 volunteer organization dedicated only to helping make the world a better place. Years later, NEST4US has over 1,000 volunteers and over $650,000 worth of volunteer hours.

This episode is part 1 of 2, mainly focused on Shreyya and Esha's childhood and how they became so involved in community service. Stay tuned next week for the next part of the Venkat's journey.
