This is very exciting for these women to have this chance. Of course, it is not a sure thing yet, but it is looking very real and very possible. If this event happens I really hope and pray that it is impactful in a positive way to gain a better understand of the conflict that is happening in the Middle East. The possibility are great and education for a life time is even greater. So we shall see what happens and I am very optimistic about this opportunity.
It will be an amazing opportunity if this works out.
