The Maurice Lucas Foundation has taught me about my potential and how to get it. I need to work hard and stay focused. This program also taught me everything can’t go my way and there will be bumps in the road. I have dedicated three years because the program helped me to believe in myself and to achieve my dreams and think of new ones. The most important pillar to me is positivity. Positivity to me is making someone else smile and making their day better than yesterday.”
