Boimah Cooper Memorial Fund

Abdul Hafiz
is a Law and Government student attending Susan E. Wagner High School in Staten Island, NY. He is involved with numerous community projects and has received countless awards and media recognition for his efforts. After the accidental death of Abdul's baby brother Ibrahim, who fell from a fire escape window, Abdul, his teacher, and class have led a crusade to push for the passage of safety legislation to prevent this tragedy from happening to any other families.

In addition to volunteering at Eibs Pond Park since second grade with his teacher, Abdul also contributed his Volvo for Life youth hero award winnings to improve the park. See www.eibspond.com.

After these accomplishments, Abdul became involved with humanitarian relief efforts in Liberia and then Peru. He continues to work on the development of the Boimah Cooper Memorial Fund NYC non-profit with his former 2nd grade teacher, Ms. Lockhart. Abdul not only packs all the boxes to ship to Liberia but assisted with the care of little Boimah during his stay in the US. Abdul treated little Boimah as his own brother,
