“Flash”
by Janel Bituin & Jeanne Kelber serving at Youth Policy Institute in Los Angeles
Umar “Flash” Ojambo is a junior attending the Helen Bernstein
Complex. He is an actively involved student and community member who has a
positive influence on his peers. He participates in Serving Our Community
(S.O.C) Dragons Club and is involved in a wide array of sports on campus. Flash
is a unique individual whose positive energy reaches out and touches those
around him.
This relationship is important to us because he has played a large
role in one of our first and main projects for the year. He is a great source
of motivation and energy for the other students in this club as well as
ourselves. While this club got off to a slow start there was a noticeable
change in the dynamic and dedication of S.O.C Dragons. His positivity and
motivation has not only given confidence in the other members but to us and the
service we do on campus.
This club has played an important role in all the
subsequent efforts we have made here at the Helen Bernstein Complex. S.O.C has
been a jumping off point for many of our other projects as well as a way for us
to stay connected to the student body. This is why the students of S.O.C and
Flash in particular is very important to us.
