Testimonials

“I currently attend UCLA and I hope to one day help out my community. Thank you, A Place Called Home, for shaping me into who I am as a person and scholar. I wasn’t sure if college was even possible due to my economic status, but with APCH’s support, I know I will be okay.“

– David, APCH Shaheen Scholar

“I graduated from high school as valedictorian with a 5.02 GPA. My village was made up of my family, friends, my church, my teachers, and A Place Called Home. I pray that I can soon become a pediatric orthopaedic surgeon, hold my own clinic, and continue to advocate for underserved communities.”

– Jenny, APCH Shaheen Scholar
