Guest Speaker Geoffrey Soyiantet on the African Immigration Experience in STL

Geoffrey Soyiantet

Geoffrey Soyiantet, founder and President of Vitendo4Africa (V4A), will join Civitas on February 6 via Zoom to talk about the African immigrant experience in St. Louis and other areas of Missouri. “Vitendo” is a Swahili word that means action, which is the core of the non-profit organization, providing action through support and services to Africans planning to arrive in St. Louis and those who are already here. Jeff and others will share how they have benefited from V4A’s help. Sign up now for this hour-long event that will focus on the trials and tribulations for immigrants merging two different cultures.

The event is Saturday, February 6 from 11 am until noon via Zoom. It’s free for all high school or middle school students.
