AFG’s Independence Fund granted through The Foyer Foundation, helped Chantel access the supplies she needed to continue her education and journey to independence. “Thank you so much for the funds that enabled me to purchase a new laptop. It has greatly helped me with my education and enabled me to complete my school assignments at home. It has also helped me in my journey to becoming more independent.” Awesome work Chantel!
