“The support provided by Mona was unlike anything we have had anywhere. Throughout the process, it felt like we had someone in our corner that wanted us to win and thrive, cheering us on and lifting us up. We are on a journey to build something that Chicago and Kenya will be proud of for generations to come, and I can definitely say that Mona was a very important part of that journey.”
