Many diversity events in our school and community such as Diwali, Hijabĭay, Africa Night and our biggest event, Multicultural night. Students, a Youth African summit in hopes to Inspire African youth toīecome leaders in their community. During my involvement in the club, I have co-created a NewĪmerican Mentoring program along with leading a breakout session on how Kids has led me to join the Be The Change Club which I am nowĬo-President. Me fall in love with helping new Americans and empathetic towards a Working with students at the Broken Ground ELL summer program. My name is Ennosen Yen and I am a refugee from South Sudan, attendingĬoncord High School as a senior.
I am beyond grateful for the Faith Hope and Love Foundation and the opportunities that they have provided me. I plan to use my degree in Music Education to inspire those the way my directors have done for me, and to give back to an ever growing community. I plan to use my knowledge of the spanish language in everyday life to connect with those may not speak english as a primary language. I hope to use my skills in the future to work in low income areas such as the one I grew up in to form connections with students that my be in similar situations to the one I have endured. I hope to one day attend Boston University for a double major in Music Education and Spanish Language. Through music I have built friendships and a long lasting drive to pursue music in my higher education. Music became a way of life and made me feel like a part of a community that I hadn’t necessarily experienced before. Throughout my childhood I was able to make a connection to music that allowed me to express myself through tough times. From a very young age I became a ward of the state where I later became an independent. Growing up I was under the care of my grandparents because my mother and father had been in and out of the picture. I spend the majority of my time tutoring other students through our National Honor Society, volunteering at the Salvation Army the first Saturday of every month, and providing peers with assistance in their music. My name is Lily Rousseau and I am a 2019 Faith Hope and Love Foundation scholarship recipient.
