It has been a while
Hello all, Mo here again. How is everyone doing? I hope everyone is doing great. It has been a while since I last updated my profile. A lot has happened since my last profile and it will take a long time to discuss it all. I will provide some updates though: Since my last update, I am sad to inform you all that my grandma (who was the most important person in my life) passed away on February 2nd 2007, just a week prior to my arrival in Sierra Leone. I traveled to Sierra Leone a week after my grandma's death to help the needy families and children of Sierra Leone. Her death marks the lowest point in my life. I thank my family and friends for their love and support during that very difficult times. As you all may remember, my last post included a request to my family and friends to help me help the needy families and children of Sierra Leone--and they did. With their help, I was able to travel to Sierra Leone on February 9th to help needy families and children. With their help, we:
1. granted 70 full one-year scholarships to boys and girls,
2. handed out 50 bags of rice to a village of about 50 homes,
3. made a monetary and food donation to the international dove orphanage I visited during my internship,
4. made a donation to an amputee camp,
5. handed out 50 bags of baby clothing to new and expecting moms at a local hospital,
6. gave toys, shoes, bags, clothes to needy children in a village I visited during my internship,
7. and so much more.
Also, I graduated from law school in May 2007 and I passed the Florida Bar Exam in July. I currently reside and work in Jacksonville. I will make a conscious effort to continue updating my blog for you all.
