Khushi Gandhi Awarded Aspire2STEAM Scholarship

Aspiring women’s health physician makes an impact in her local community while advancing medical research

“We are not only thrilled to award Khushi Gandhi a scholarship, we are thankful she is on the planet!” said Cheryl O’Donoghue, CEO at Aspire2STEAM.org. “Her aptitude for learning and excelling in science and business is extraordinary and we want to support her on her journey and encourage others to do the same.”

Currently, Khushi has recently finished up her freshman year at Northeastern University where she is pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry and a minor in Business Administration on the pre-med track. Within this highly selective and nationally accredited major, Khushi is able to learn more about two of her main passions in life—chemistry and biology. Her desire to help others, especially women, first started to grow in high school as she was able to be a part of programs such as the Academy of Medical Arts and as a volunteer with the March for Dimes. It was through her role as a March of Dimes Youth Leader at her local Boys and Girls Club, that she interacted with young children and aided them with their cognitive development. Concurrently, she helped raise money for the moms of these children to receive healthcare.
