The pair had to put their college education on hold to work at BJ's Wholesale Club after high school before they received a scholarship to Prince George's Community College.

The end of the tunnel for the twins became brighter shortly after Towson granted them both full scholarships.

They admit they received help, hence, are giving back to society. ''For us to get here, we received some help,'' said Malachi, according to Wbaltv11.

Where do they get funds?

Malachi and Rasul receive support directly from private donors and they also give cash from their pockets. The twins are set to graduate in December, and this will be the first time in their lives they'll have separate graduation ceremonies.
