Read Full Story

The foundation was established to empower boys and girls from marginalized and underprivileged communities.

This is a great breakaway from the problems the children faced in their childhood years which range from drug, sexual or domestic abuse, malnutrition, alcoholism or unemployment for their parents which has resulted in them lacking essential resources for their physical, psychological and mental growth.
