Episode 11: Awet Woldegebriel, on Giving Back to Refugee Communities
Awet Woldegebriel first arrived to the U.S. as a refugee from Ethiopia, where his Eritrean family faced persecution and was forced to flee during the Ethiopian-Eritrean War. More than 15 years later, he now works at UNICEF USA on our Major Gifts Team here in New York. For World Refugee Day, he joins us to talk about his personal journey, giving back through his Knowledge Aid Foundation, and why we all win when refugee and migrant children are able to realize the full potential.
