Roanoke’s Hope Fund partnership featured in O Magazine - Roanoke College - Salem, Virginia

Roanoke’s Hope Fund partnership featured in O Magazine - Roanoke College - Salem, Virginia: "Roanoke College provides four-year scholarships for Palestinian students

Yahia Abu Hashem came to Roanoke College from a different background than most students. A Palestinian student from the Gaza Strip, Hashem came to Roanoke in the fall of 2007 through a program called the Hope Fund, a program for young Palestinian refugees who excel academically but whose poverty makes it difficult for them to achieve higher education."
