Daniel Ugwu

(He/Him) Program Manager

“Growing up amidst the challenges of poverty and the struggle to overcome it shaped my early years. The struggles seemed enormous at times, but I found a way to rise above them through sheer grit, resilience, and the unwavering support of my friends and family. Each hardship was a stepping stone, forging a strength within me that I never knew I possessed. It taught me that no matter how dark the days are, there is always a glimmer of hope and light at the end of the tunnel. Today, I stand as a testament to overcoming adversity and a beacon of hope for others walking a similar path. My journey has inspired me to dedicate my life to supporting youths in navigating their challenges, empowering them to believe in their capacity to rise, just as I did.”
