Time magazine has long been famous for its “Person of the Year”, which highlights someone who really made a difference during the year. Last year, climate activist Greta Thunberg became the first person under 25 to be chosen as Time’s Person of the Year.

Andrea Delbanco, the editor of TIME for Kids, says “Small steps can lead to big change. These are everyday kids making change in their communities.”

When Gitanjali was 11, she invented a system for testing drinking water for lead. Lead is a dangerous metal that’s sometimes found in drinking water especially in places with older pipes. The invention earned her the title of America’s ‘Top Young Scientist’ in the Discovery Education 3M Young Scientist Challenge.

One thing that really impressed Time’s judges was the efforts Gitanjali has made to influence others. She’s worked with schools, clubs, museums, and other groups around the world to teach over 30,000 other young people how to come up with their own solutions to problems.

“I don’t look like your typical scientist,” she says. That’s one reason she works so hard to encourage others to make their own changes in the world. “It’s not easy when you don’t see anyone else like you.
