She was so cooperative and frank, and extended a helping hand to me, which was why I was able to begin my project sooner, and she was a source of inspiration and strength. She had complete knowledge of all the training topics, and was cooperative, supportive, and motivating throughout the training and after it. She was so generous that she used her connections on my behalf to help me to achieve my goals." - Shireen, one of Karen's mentees
  • "My vision became clearer, and I became more knowledgeable about what kind of services civil society needs; I had a golden opportunity to communicate with American civil society organizations and also with organizations specialized in youth development and education.
