​Yo Ghana! is proud to announce that one of our leading volunteers, Ibrahim Ibrahim, has accepted a scholarship to attend Harvard University next fall. Ibrahim started our photography and identity project and often speaks and facilitates at our events. He is a senior at the Oregon Muslim Academy and the child of immigrants from Sudan. Yo Ghana! President David Peterson del Mar remarks that "Ibrahim is one of the most mature and generous persons you could hope to meet. He is a humble leader and inspiring example who has already transformed many lives."

Ibrahim writes: "I am excited to be among a group of students who have expressed a passion for changing the world and will translate that into their college years. I hope to learn from the international student body of Harvard and use the tools that I will learn from both in and outside the classroom to get closer to my goals of bridging the education gap and making this country more open to ethnic, racial, religious, and any other sort of inclusivity. I hope one day that the American people will be a people blind to the differences of each other but rather a country embracing of each others differences; I hope that Harvard will help me work towards that vision."
