Annandale HS students raise money for Somali schools

Kudos to Annandale High School students Bashir Warsame and Sahnun Mohamud for creating a foundation to help the children of Somalia. A recent report on the teens on News Channel 8 explains their plan to raise money for educational equipment, like laptops and projectors, for Somali schools. They hope that improved opportunities for education will offer alternative to young Somalis, who are being recruited by terrorists and pirates. Their foundation, Wake Up Somalia, has a fundraising goal of $10,000.
