City of Miami Gardens Councilman Dr. Erhabor Ighodaro in partnership with the Miami Dade County Public School's Ingram Africa School Alliance Rites of Passage program is preparing to host two Miami Gardens teens for a trip of a lifetime - a journey to Sierra Leone, West Africa.
In partnership with the Foundation for Democracy in Africa, the program allows for cross-cultural visits to Africa as a hands-on learning experience for local students as well as teachers.
This year's planned excursion will see students embark on a journey to the West African nation of Sierra Leone, August 5-14th, 2013. Students will visit historical sites such as world renowned Laka Beach, Free-Town and Diamond Mine.
Since the inception of the program, a total of twenty-three Miami-Dade County students have had the opportunity to take part in the Rites of Passage Program.
For more information on becoming involved and/or supporting the program, contact Councilman Dr. Ighodaro at eighodaro@miamigardens-fl.gov
