A local attorney and professor in the Executive and Professional Program at UCF,\u00a0Kay Wolf, raised over $86,000 to build and equip a school in Cambodia. With her firm, FordHarrison LLP, a national labor and employment law firm, fully supporting the initiative, she was able to complete construction of the school in less than a year.<\/p>\n
Wolf was inspired to build The FordHarrison School in a rural village in Cambodia. The day she came to her partner Lash Harrison about her inspirational idea, he simply told her-\u201cgo for it!\u201d Upon completion, Wolf made a trip to see all of her hard work in action. Holding back tears, she opened the door of the van and was greeted by 420 gracious children. It was in that moment that Wolf knew she had done the right thing, and that the school would continue to bring hope to the community and inspire her to keep dreaming big dreams.<\/p>\n
\u201cI grew up believing that education is the key to financial independence and stability\u2014both of which are desperately in need of in Cambodia,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
With the help of the firm\u2019s $20,000 donation, and the constant support of friends, family, and colleagues, Wolf was able to build The FordHarrison School and enable the young children in that village to succeed in something greater. Her legacy will continue to live throughout the entire community for years to come as she has inspired the village to live an educated life.<\/p>\n
