Harambee Life | April 17, 2025

Harambee is celebrating a proud moment for fifth grader Ajwa Abshir, who was recently recognized as one of three winners of the Martin Luther King Jr. Day Writing Contest, hosted by Planting People Growing Justice. As part of her prize, Ajwa and her family attended the Minnesota Twins game on Saturday, where she had the honor of throwing out the ceremonial first pitch. “It was an awesome moment celebrating one of our students,” said Principal Nathan Meyer.
