To some, $1,000 may seem like a drop in the bucket, but for me, it opened the widow of opportunity to change lives, including my own, members of Foster & Banks Walk in Faith Foundation and everyone we have come across. We went from a 3 Person Board to now having 21 Adult Members and 4 Youth Members. We started out with 1 Partnership and 2 schools, and now have over 20 partnerships, have delivered services or support to 6 schools and 5 Community Programs and Churches. You have helped restored my faith that there are really systems of support that really work to help everyday people, who want to make extraordinary change!
