With this sentiment in mind, we have decided to work together through SeVVA aiming to reach out to as many people as possible.”
We will contribute in whatever way we can. We will do it as one. As a family. For the family that we belong to. The world that we live in. The society that has provided for us and loved us. The universe with which we are all connected.@sevvafoundation #SeVVA#InThisTogether
