Story of Impact:
Orphan to Duke Graduate
Many children around the world grow up without the basics most of us take for granted—electricity to study by at night, running water, or access to a quality education. Revo was one of those children.
From elementary school through his senior year of high school, Make A Difference Now walked alongside Revo, fully supporting his education. What he brought was determination, curiosity, and an unwavering belief that his life could be more. What we provided was access—the same access so many children in the Western world are born into.
Revo did the rest.
After graduating high school, he earned a full-ride scholarship to Duke University. He went on to work at Thomson Reuters, then paid his own way through a master’s degree at Boston College. Today, Revo is a data scientist, working full time and giving back to his community in Tanzania.
This is what your partnership makes possible.
