Giving Back: What Makes a True Bourse Jackie Scholar? 🤍
The Bourse Jackie program offers much more than academic support. It provides opportunities, confidence, community, and vision.
But beyond receiving, what do they give back to the program?
Chaya perfectly represents this spirit of giving back. Beyond her personal commitments, she remains constantly available to support, guide, and contribute to the growth of the program and its scholars.
A true example of leadership, commitment, and solidarity. Bourse Jackie thanks you Chaya !

Belonging to the World by Barry Hoffner, founder of Caravan to Class ✨

Following its recent release, Belonging to the World has already marked a successful launch.

The book brought together nearly 300 participants during its launch event and reached major milestones, becoming a #1 New Release and a #2 Best Seller on Amazon during its release week — a true “moment in the sun.”

Beyond these achievements, the book carries a powerful purpose. It shares a journey of impact, vision, and deep human connection.

Most importantly, all proceeds will support Bourse Jackie programs, continuing to transform the lives of young girls across West Africa.👏
