A testimony spanning sixteen years of mentorship, crisis support, funded rehabilitation and a return to education and employment.

“My story began approximately sixteen years ago when I was fifteen, at my first job as a waiter. Little did I know that that was the turning point in my life.”

“He gave me his card and said should I ever need anything, I should just give him a call. A few months later I could not make rent — I made that call. Within minutes came the reply: please use this to pay your expenses in advance, and focus on your schoolwork.”

“As in life sometimes we take a wrong turn, I did this and ended up in rehab, again the foundation came to my aid. My entire rehabilitation was funded quietly, without expectation of return.”

“Since I was released from rehabilitation I have taken my life back and have been succeeding ever since serving in a volunteer emergency service, recently promoted, holding a management position, and completing the first phase of my MBA.”

“The way I was raised and taught by these gentlemen is to pay it forward and raise others as I have been to leave the world in a better place than I found it. And so I shall.”
