Olympic champion Julien Alfred's historic achievements are hailed as a powerful testament to the adage, 'It takes a village to raise a child.' As Saint Lucia and the world continue to celebrate Alfred's remarkable accomplishments at the 2024 Summer Olympics, Equity, Social Justice, and Empowerment Minister Hon. Joachim Henry stresses the vital lesson the star athlete's success embodies—the collective effort and support of an entire community.

 

Minister Henry says Alfred's journey from the South Castries community of Ciceron to Olympic glory is a shining example of how unified support and commitment can propel a young talent to extraordinary heights. Surrounded by a network of individuals who recognized and nurtured her potential, Alfred's accomplishments are not solely her own but a reflection of the collective dedication of her village.
