"Each one of us has a T-shirt. On the shirt it says: We Are One Team. I will always treasure this shirt because I think it holds the most important message of all. We accomplished this as a team. Without the help of every single individual, we couldn’t have done it. Global Perspectives isn’t about any one individual. While we may have gone into the program as individuals, we came out as one team." - Ge Li, Fiji 2011
