A Pact That Changed Three Lives
Growing up in the tough inner-city streets of Newark, New Jersey, without fathers and surrounded by poverty, crime, and negative influences, these three kindred spirits made a life-changing pact as teenagers: they would stick together, go to college, graduate, and become doctors. Through a pre-medicine and pre-dental scholarship program at Seton Hall University, they fulfilled that promise against extraordinary odds overcoming juvenile detention, street violence, and crushing self-doubt to earn their medical and dental degrees.
