ABOUT US
Who we are:
Our names are Anya, Harini and Mahi!
We are three high school students wanting to create a positive impact through ED awareness. Knowing many people in our lives who have been affected with eating disorders and many people who have no idea how detrimental they are to mental and physical health, we hope to inform people on what ED's are and how they can help.
We hope that through our campaign, we can promote a positive attitude towards bodies of all shapes and sizes and make a small impact through our efforts.
Keep up with the latest!
