A Portrait for Warda El Ajjouri

A Portrait for Warda El Ajjouri

Yesterday December 22nd, it was a beautiful and successful evening.
SOR had organized a benefit concert for the families of political prisoners from the Rif (Northern) region in Morocco. These families have to travel hundreds of miles to see their loved ones in the prisons, not to mention that the missing breadwinners in already hard living conditions in this part of the country. It was an honor for me to make the portrait of the volunteer of the year 2018 elected by Stichting Ontwikkeling Rif, Warda El Ajjouri.
