Putting A Voice & A Face To Refugees

Crowned Miss Universe 2011 and Miss Malaysia 2007, Deborah Priya Henry left her modelling career to focus on activism and humanitarian work for refugee children in Malaysia. Through Fugee School, a non-profit charity organisation that provides basic education to Somalian refugee children and then Fugeelah, a social enterprise, which she both co-founded, she became their voice when they needed it most.
