- Abstract
- This article, published on June 1, 2020, outlines how Mastercard Foundation Scholars quickly demonstrated transformative leadership by giving back to their communities amid the COVID-19 crisis. Initiatives included the Hope Campaign, which raised funds to support vulnerable hospital patients in Rwanda, and Emmanuel Mushy's shift to using street art for hygiene awareness in Tanzania. Furthermore, Scholars provided essential food relief to 250 families in Rwanda, and translated life-saving COVID-19 medical information into local languages for remote distribution
