so I made it to Harvard
never thought I'd be able to say that in
my life but it feels good
thank you dr. counter thank you to the
Harvard foundation and Thank You Harvard
University for this great honor thank
you I'm incredibly humbled by this to be
acknowledged at this magnitude for
something that in truth I've never
wanted credit for when I was five or six
years old I remember watching TV and I
would see these commercials and I was
watching other children suffer in other
parts of the world and you know the
commercials were there you know you
could get 25 cent and save a child's
life you know and I would think to
myself like I wonder how many 25 cents I
could save up to save all the kids in
Africa and I would say to myself you
know like when I grow up and I can get
rich and I'm a sick kids all over the
world I just didn't know I would be in
the position to do that by the time I
was a teenager
as seventeen I started my career here in
America and by the age of 18 I started
my first charity organization I went on
to team up with other organizations in
the following years and met helped and
even lost some of the most beautiful
Souls from six early as Amina Amina who
passed away in 2010 from leukemia her
story inspired thousands to volunteers
donors through GMS fast forward to 2012
when my grandmother the late Clara
Brathwaite she lost her battle with
cancer which is the very reason and the
driving force behind the Clara
Lynelle foundation we're all human and
we all just watch ants
a chance at life a chance at an
education a chance at a future really
and a CLF our mission is to impact as
many lives as possible but it starts
with just one just one as I stare out
into this beautiful room as the optimism
I see hope I see the future I know that
each and every one of you has the
opportunity to help someone else all you
need to do is help one person expecting
nothing in return to me that is a
humanitarian
[Applause]
people make it seem way too hard man the
truth is and what the little girl
watching those commercials didn't know
is that you don't have to be rich to be
a humanitarian you don't have to be rich
to help somebody you don't gotta be
famous you don't even have to be
college-educated I mean I wish I was
I'll I'll say you know especially today
it's true I might come back but all
right
[Applause]
but it starts with your neighbor the
person right next to you the person
sitting next to you in class the kid
down the block in your neighborhood you
just do whatever you can to help in any
way that you can and today I want to
challenge each of you to make a
commitment to help one person one
organization one situation that touches
your heart my grandmother always used to
say if you got a dollar there's plenty
to share thank you ladies and gentlemen
[Applause]
