Recently the Noah’s Ark Family suffered an unimaginable loss of one of its own students.

Abdul-Wakil was an energetic and loving boy. Always bringing a smile to the teachers faces or a hug for a friend. Even at such a young age his presence was grand. The walls of Noah’s Ark won’t be the same without the sounds of his laughter or running footsteps down the hall.

In this time of great sadness, we look for ways to honor Abdul-Wakil‘s beautiful life and his endearing friendship to his peers.

It is our hope to donate a playground structure to Noah’s Ark in remembrance of Abdul-Wakil. Though he is no longer physically with us, we want his joyful presence to be remembered.

If our goal is achieved, we plan to have the playground set chosen by Abdul-Wakil’s older brother, a former student at Noah’s Ark.
