Laila, a high school student when she arrived, struggled to keep up with her studies due to language barriers and cultural differences. She joined our academic support program, receiving tutoring and mentorship from volunteers. With this assistance, Laila excelled in her studies, eventually earning a scholarship to a local university. “The tutoring and encouragement I received made all the difference. I’m now studying to become a teacher,” Laila beams.
