"I am honored to be a member of this amazing program and would love to keep helping!"
Feli Keti is a RISE AmeriCorps member serving with EMBARC (Ethnic Minorities of Burma Advocacy and Resource Center) in Waterloo, Iowa.

​Feli was born in Kinshasa in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Once in the US he resettled in Illinois, where he attended college and earned a bachelor's degree in Political Science and Sociology. 

After graduation, Feli moved to Waterloo to be closer to family and help out with EMBARC. First he worked as a contract interpreter for French and Lingala languages. Then he served a year with RISE AmeriCorps as navigator for the Congolese community. In his second term with RISE, Feli is supporting a youth after-school youth program.
