PHC Initiative Africa

Rasheed grew up in urban Lagos, Nigeria seeing his father volunteer time and resources to lead the local Community Development Association. As a teenager, he helped with bookkeeping functions for the association’s activities at home. Soon after, he relocated to the United State of America where he worked as a nurse assistant at a senior living facility in Chicago Height, Illinois. He later moved South for his degree in Mechanical and Energy Engineering at the University of North Texas. Rasheed works as a manufacturing engineer and lean trainer in Terell, Texas. His guiding vision is to use acquired skills and resources for the service of humanity. His experience and background have motivated him giving back to society. Rasheed currently volunteers some time in support of local food banks, blood drive initiatives and donates to relay for life programs.
