Nour Maaz’s Success Story

This is Nour Maaz, I’m a Healthcare Management student in Spotlight, a scholarship offered by LASeR in partnership with Southern New Hampshire University (SNHU) – USA to study from Lebanon with SNHU. I joined the Spotlight scholarship in 2019, almost 5 years after moving from Syria to Lebanon and I was able to get a lot of new opportunities.

I was chosen by SNHU GEM to participate in Larsen Lam ICONIQ Impact Award, a funding for initiatives that target refugees’ education and resettlement programs. I was chosen for my story and my public speaking and communication skills. I always love to participate in suck events because I love to spread awareness about refugees and their education and serve as an example of how investment in education can change someone’s life. I love to show the world that there are initiatives that provide the necessary support and help for students to succeed despite the difficulties.

In addition, I got the chance to talk about refugees during the RewirED event in Expo Dubai 2021 as a representative of LASeR, SNHU and the United Nations (UN). I shared my story with other vulnerable learners from different countries. I showed all attendees how investment in education changed my life and my family’s life. I believe that by participating in such events I’m helping other people too. I felt like I’m representing a lot of students that are struggling. Being in this position and speaking for a big number of vulnerable students was a huge accomplishment and responsibility. I learnt that I have to speak up and help others succeed and reach their goals and serve as a model for the donors to invest in such projects and programs.

These two opportunities showed me that as long as we’re working hard and striving to be better, all limitations will be gone! I do believe I’m not doing this for myself only, I’m doing it to help myself and others!

Alnarjess Harba’s Story

Celebrating Alnarjes Harba's Graduation on International Women's Day

My name is Alnarjes Harba I earned my Bachelor of Arts (B.A) in Healthcare management in 2 years instead of 4! This is my success Story!

I was born in Syria, displaced to Lebanon then in December 2020 I graduated from Southern New Hampshire University (SNHU), an American university.

I kept on trying to pursue a bachelor’s degree when there seemed to be no hope. I completed my Associate of Arts (AA) in six months. I did my first internship in the human resources department in a well-known hospital as a first step in the field of healthcare management. Then, throughout my B.A. studies, I won an award from Ottawa University to help 20 high school students to engage them in the Lebanese higher education. My second internship helped two refugee-run businesses to bounce back from COVID-19’s impact. Before graduating, I became a mentee at Global Mentorship Initiative program in which I polished my business skills to prepare my career path. “It is never impossible to achieve success whether you’re at the bottom of the ladder or over the hill” says Alnarjes.

The Lebanese Association for Scientific Research (LASeR), the partner of Global Education Movement (GEM) at SNHU in Tripoli, Lebanon is the place where I spent 12 hours a day studying. It is not only a place. I did not think that the smallest actions can make s difference until I met LASeR’s staff. With a little guidance, they showed me things about myself that I could not see before. They really came along at just the right moment, when I needed them the most when I needed them in my fight for life. They did not hesitate to help me in my fight to make a new life from actually nothing.

After earning my Bachelor of Arts in Healthcare Management, I started as a participatory action research intern with the City University of New York to prepare for my master’s degree. For further support in my career, I am an intern at the Higher Education and Real-World Training.

Today, I am a researcher in healthcare architecture at HGA Architects and Engineers a company based in Minnesota, USA. Worth to mention, I prepared my research proposal for the master’s degree directly after finishing my AA and applied for a Japanese scholarship.
