Achievement brief | Mama Maggie Gobran is the founder of Stephen's Children in Cairo, Egypt, which serves 32,000 families each year. The organization runs 100 community education centers in the poorest districts of Egypt that focus on early education for pre-school children. The organization also has established two first-class schools in Cairo's El Khosous slum area. Last year, the organization served almost 2 million meals to children and youth, and ran summer camps for both boys and girls. In the context of these programs, 36,158 medical cases were treated. Mama Maggie has received multiple awards (please Google her) and has been nominated multiple times for the Nobel Peace Prize. While she is a Coptic Christian, she is widely appreciated for her appreciation of multiple religious traditions, including Islam in her own country. |
