From an Orphan to a CEO (w/Zahara McCoy)
Zahara McCoy grew up in a small village in Uganda. At age 10, she lost both her parents to HIV/AIDS and soon faced the very real prospect of becoming a child bride. Everything changed when a Christian family in California sponsored Zahara’s education—an act of compassion that later allowed her to move to the United States. After studying at George Washington University, Zahara developed a desire to give back to Africa. Today, she is the CEO of Children of Grace, a Christian non-profit that works to impact thousands of children through medical aid, education, and mentoring in her home region of Uganda.
