Friends of Hope,
After a very exuberant welcome that involved 100 staff and students showing up to greet us at the airport, and one broken down bus, we arrived at our friend Joseph’s home in Liberia around midnight.
The very next day, Abu’s father, Mr. Kamara, showed up (unexpectedly, and from a long distance) to Joseph’s home. He brought with him four melons to express his deep gratitude that his son, Abu, who has been waiting for the opportunity, is now able to attend university.
We shared tears and melons and gratitude for the generosity of the Williams Friendship Fund for making it possible for Abu to attend university and for all of you who helped him get to that place.
Together, we are The Hope Project.
