Hope Oje, member of the Sterling World Culture Club has been notified by the Goodwin Holocaust Museum and Education Center in Cherry Hill that she is a recipient of Richard C. Goodwin-Josiah DuBois Humanitarian Award in the amount of $1,000. The competition was open to all high school students that participate in clubs or activities that express tolerance, humanitarianism, and respect for all.
Hope is involved in Social Studies Seminar, Interact Club, and World Culture Club here at Sterling High School, and is a true humanitarian. She participates in these service clubs because she believes in helping others. Her favorite public speaker Dr. Michael Fowlin said that there is a difference between doing what you are supposed to do and doing what you need to do. Hope believes one person can make a difference and if we can change our lives and change the way we see others, we can change the world for the better.
Hope Oje will be honored on June 26, 2013 at 7:00 p.m. at the Annual Holocaust Education Center Reception at the JCC in Cherry Hill.
