Born in the Central African Republic, Amira Kherrallah has faced the unimaginable challenges of leaving her home, family, and friends behind during a time of conflict. Her inspiring journey as a refugee and entrepreneur has taught her the importance of resilience, determination, and hope. She puts God first in her life and likes to make herself useful and serve her community.

“My story made who I am today... when I see myself I would never believe that I am that Amira stronger, independent, and hard worker.. I wont be this Amira today if all of those events, challenges never happened in my life.”

1. Explore Amira's harrowing experiences as a refugee in the midst of war and crisis.
2. Realize the importance of vulnerability and honesty in fostering strong, meaningful interactions.
3. Embracing your past and relying on God to become your best self and create your best future.

The death of Amira's mother contributed to who she is today. It was the driving force behind her founding, PreventHer.org, a non-profit dedicated to providing resources and raising awareness about Breast Cancer in refugees. Visit her organization at www.PreventHer.org
