How You're helpingWhen I first became a Fellow, I was in a bad space, and was at a major risk of dropping out of college. Here I am now, almost finished my Bachelor’s degree. Everything that the foundation has supported me with from educational scholarships, monthly support, workshops, meetings, etc.—I thank you from the bottom of my heart." - Emily B. |
