His mom could not afford to attend his graduation at Harvard. 24 years later, he takes her there.
Chris graduated at Harvard 24 years back but he was sad that his mom could not attend his graduation ceremony.
“When I graduated here 24 years ago, my mother was absent from the ceremony, because it was too expensive for her to make the trip from my native village in Kenya to the United States.”,He wrote on the Facebook.He continued to write,”So you can imagine the joy I felt last week as I brought her for her first visit to the university, at the age of 83!
Though uneducated herself, my mother has always valued education and indeed remains one of the smartest people I know.”.Big up to Chris for this.
What sacrifice did your mom endure to put you to school?
