Being a Mastercard Foundation Scholar gives me the opportunity to run an extra mile with the focus of making an impact in this world and not just for the medal that would be rewarded me at the end of the race.

Grace Lowor is currently a student at ASU pursuing an accelerated master's degree program in Biomedical Engineering. She is passionate about helping people, especially autistic children in Ghana, Africa. In pursuit of her dream of becoming a card-carrying neuroengineer, she hopes to develop a neurological product yet an assistive technology which has the potential to help children with autism to freely communicate and interact with their society. Being an assistant overseer of Africa Hall- Pentecost Students & Associates and the General Secretary of Biomedical Engineering Students’ Society in her home institution, KNUST for the 2019-2020 academic year, Grace was privileged to humbly serve and positively impact people from all walks of life. As Muhammad Ali once said, “Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on earth.”, Grace believes that serving others is the least one can contribute to make the world a better place for all. Grace enjoys singing, reading, bead-making and travelling. She also loves to volunteer in her spare time and is part of Charismatic Evangelistic Ministry - Day of Help, a ministry that seeks to reach out and transform lives of persons with disabilities by providing them food, clothing, shelter, healthcare and assistive technology devices based on their respective disabilities. She has also volunteered in many other outreach programs focusing on her passion of being of service to children with autism in some parts of Ashanti Region, Ghana.
