Wilhelmina Tsang and the Oruj Learning Center
Wilhelmina is a graduate student at Columbia University's School of International and Public Affairs (SIPA). At SIPA she is pursuing a master's in public administration (MPA) with concentrations in economic and political development and advanced policy analysis.
Originally from the New York City area, Wilhelmina previously served in the Peace Corps in the Philippines as an education volunteer, and most recently had managed an after-school program for Asian immigrants and refugees in Washington, DC. She is the recipient of a SIPA Cordier Fellowship and plans to embark on a career in international development policy.
This summer, Wilhelmina will be supporting the Oruj Learning Center as an Advocacy Project Peace Fellow.
Please help me support a new generation of Afghan girls in learning basic literacy. For years, girls were denied the right to an education. You can now help make this a reality. Please also feel free to contact me.
