My Cousin and Fierce Global Advocate - Cynthia Changyit Levin

I am so thrilled to have my very talented and very cool cousin, Cynthia. It’s so nice when someone you know and love is doing so much good in the world for so many whom she knows and loves and thousands she doesn’t. What makes her such a powerful advocate and human champion is her ability to look past barriers others may find insurmountable or untenable in the political climate and beyond in order to advocate for others, especially those without voices of their own or access to make change where they live. In the realm of advocacy, it’s often a personal experience that ignites the spark within. Cynthia explains that spark and how she keeps the fire burning. I am so grateful for all she’s already achieved and look forward to all she may continue to do. About Cynthia: She is the author of “From Changing Diapers to Changing the World: Why Moms Make Great Advocates and How to Get Started” and the upcoming "Advocacy Made Easy" handbook launching in the summer of 2025.
