One sentence that describes David:‍

“To be successful at anything, the truth is you don’t have to be special. You just have to be what most people aren’t. Consistent, determined, and willing to work for it. No shortcuts.” - Tom Brady

What Svitlo School is to David:‍

Svitlo is home, because only at home can you get through a terrible storm. This is the place where I am building a new me. Svitlo influenced me drastically, I joined at a very difficult time for me, and Svitlo gave me this light in the darkness.
