From his days surviving on Ghanaian streets to his years leading Marquette to soccer glory and going pro, James Nortey, Arts ‘15, soaked up lessons to apply in his unique role as director of care and culture at the Right to Dream Academy in Ghana, where he got his start. The academy is legendary in Ghana and beyond as a pipeline to international study and scholarship opportunities, and sometimes professional careers at the sport’s highest levels.

What he did not know then was that he would return to Ghana and help other youngsters along similar journeys. #BeTheDifference Read more about Nortey’s story in Marquette Today.
