You may not have the opportunities that someone else has, but don’t lose hope, keep going. I came from an environment where I had nothing, and now I’m competing in the @Olympics. If I can do it, you can do it as well."
We are incredibly proud to announce that Nigara Shaheed, a recent graduate of our International Development program, will compete in the Paris Summer Olympics!
