Today on The Pursuit: Cassandra & Edison Lee

Cassandra and Edison are co-founders of Justice Rising, an organization that is Educating children living in war zones, empowering them to break the cycle of war and build a culture of peace. They do this by building schools and empowering communities in places like the DRC, Iraq & Syria. In other words, they are working in some of the hardest places in the world, on the ground, to invest in local leaders to build a future of peace.
