Two years ago, he arrived in a new country, surrounded by a new language and culture. He didn’t speak English, but he showed up—with determination in his heart and a goal in his mind. Today, he stands tall, sharing his journey in the very language he once didn’t know. He thanks his teachers for helping him learn. He thanks Coach Luma for believing in him. And he thanks this community for becoming part of his story. His journey is proof: with courage, support, and perseverance—transformation is always possible. 🎓 #FugeesFamilyGrad #GraduationCountdown #ClassOf2025 (fb)

“Don’t play around with your education—the world we are living in needs more educated people. Go become one.” Those are the words his mother spoke to him, and he carried them all the way to graduation. He honors her, his father, and the many teachers who poured into him along the way. With deep roots in Burundi and a heart full of gratitude, he stands ready for what’s next—shaped by love, strengthened by sacrifice, and inspired by the truth that education opens doors. He’s not just receiving a diploma. He’s stepping into his future—one his family always believed he could reach. 🎓 #FugeesFamilyGrad #GraduationCountdown #ClassOf2025 (fb)
