Spotlight30 Before 30
30 Before 30 is a community initiative by the Global Shapers Jeddah Hub that inspires young people to reconnect with their dreams, explore their passions, and live beyond daily routines and expectations. The idea is simple: Create a bucket list of 30 experiences, goals, or adventures that encourage personal growth, new connections, and unforgettable memories. Because life is about more than just work and achievements. It's about actually living! Your dreams called. Stop ghosting them. 💌
