Someone Else Who Is Always Reaching For The Stars

Emmanuel was only a few months when his parents fled from the Eastern DRC, having lost all their relatives in the war. The family lived with us for about 5 years after their arrival. When the parents got work, they moved on, but Emmanuel remained with us. We put him into school where he matriculated and has since never stopped trying to reach his dreams to become a financial advisor.  On his own initiative, he joined Toastmasters, and Rotary, having now been made chairman of their youth branch.
