Growing up in a refugee camp meant he had to wait in line for everything, often in vain. This lived experience from crippling poverty to his fulfilling community advocacy for more than 10 years, has informed his perspectives on servant leadership. Upon resettlement to the U.S, Suud joined the ONE campaign to highlight the dire situation of the millions of families here at home and around the world who are battling poverty. Suud is a recipient of several awards both here in Minnesota and beyond, including but not limited to the Young Leader from Minnesota.
His background and commitment to better the lives of underserved communities had given him the opportunity to listen firsthand to the concerns of families like yours and his. This has only strengthened his desire to make real, meaningful change. That is why he is running to represent Ward 6 in our great City of Minneapolis.Bold and Progressive leadership
