Meet Euphrasie

Euphrasie Lukama is a RISE AmeriCorps member at the Intercultural Center of Iowa.

When Euphrasie moved to the United States in 2004, the first thing on her mind was learning English in order to serve the community as she did back home in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Euphrasie has five children and often travels internationally for her church. 

"Now with the privilege and opportunity RISE AmeriCorps has offered me, I hope to do even more to help families in the community and continue doing what I love most."
