I’m incredibly appreciative that I’ve made connections with such wonderful alumni and students. I am now more inspired than ever to help my community thanks to this program. Through this fellowship, I picked up valuable life skills including how to handle my money, write a cover letter, make cold calls, networking, and what to think about when communicating professionally. Thanks to Estat, I now look forward to what the future will bring.”

“This program is truly unique and special for young adults from low-income backgrounds. I would have never been able to learn about networking or professionalism this early without this fellowship. I was able to meet professionals and gain so much insight, not only from people like Esat but also from the other fellows. It was a beautiful and welcoming community that I would recommend anyone join.”

“The Bayar Fellowship has truly been an amazing experience. As a low-income high school student, I found the program tailored to my interests in a way that made me feel seen and valued. East Bayar, the founder, has been an incredible mentor, selflessly guiding me through college and recruitment processes. The fellowship’s emphasis on financial literacy has provided me with a solid foundation for my future. Moreover, the connections I’ve formed with fellow participants and mentors have created a strong support system that will continue to propel me towards success.”

“The Bayar Fellowship was an amazing program that I had the honor of taking part in and it completely changed my life. Esat was tremendously passionate and knowledgeable, leading us through exercises such as resume building and cold calling that helped us develop our confidence and practical abilities. I gained priceless skills during this fellowship that would help me advance professionally. It was a rewarding experience, and I heartily suggest it to anyone wishing to improve their networking skills and broaden their horizons.”

“This program is amazing! I learned how to effectively develop my professional development skills like building a resume, a LinkedIn, college admissions, general life skills, and how to stand out. I appreciate that most if not all of the tips and tricks that were covered are not typically taught in schools or during a class. The program runners genuinely care about everybody’s growth and go above and beyond to make sure everybody is supported. I find myself using tips that Esat taught me every day and I will continue to do so in the future!”
