Kowshara Thomas, Executive Director and recipient of 2026 John Thompson Jr. Legacy of a Dream Award, was distinguished as the guest speaker at the "Social Justice Send-Off" ceremony. 💚

The Center for Social Justice .georgetown and Georgetown University host this annual event to recognize graduates dedicated to community-based work and social justice initiatives, traditionally featuring Legacy of a Dream awardees as keynote speakers.

Kowshara shared The Five Precepts by Frank Ostaseski, urging graduates to continue to do the work that makes justice real throughout their journeys:

"So, as you leave here today, do so with both pride and purpose. Celebrate what you have accomplished, but do not forget what lies ahead. The world does not need perfection from you. It needs your persistence. Your compassion. Your willingness to stand up, even when it is difficult."
