Lives Are Going to Change

National Presbyterian Church (Washington, D.C.) is partnering with IAFR to scholarship 3 refugee girls and 2 IDP girls through secondary school beginning this fall.
I had a chance to meet the 3 refugee girls (photo) to learn a bit of their story and to make an introductory video to send to National Presbyterian Church. Sadly, the IDP girls were not able to make it to the meeting due to torrential rainfall.
It was a privilege to be the messenger to tell them that a distant church was burdened to help them get through high school and generate some hope for a better future.
The girls are from South Sudan, D.R. Congo and Burundi.
IAFR is partnering with Windle Trust, a locally active NGO specializing in educational scholarships.
