Epilogue
Since
his Olympic success in 2008, Lopez Lomong has partnered with World Vision to
offer care, support, and a better future to families in South Sudan recovering
from a legacy of warfare.
Through
the 4 South Sudan project, The Lopez Lomong Foundation and World Vision are
bringing hope to families who face the realities of poverty and the lingering
impact of daily violence. By providing access to clean water, health care,
education, and nutrition they are providing a brighter future for the South
Sudanese.

Management Lesson #24 – Give Back
It is easy to focus on yourself. The fact of
the matter is that giving to others provides much greater satisfaction and
yields much greater happiness. Choose to place others ahead of yourself by
giving back to your country, your state, your community, or your church.
Lopez
has also continued his professional running career. In the 2012 London
Olympics, Lopez made the finals in the 5000 meters and finished fifth. He is now
training for the 2016 Rio Olympics as we speak.
