As a survivor of the challenging foster care system, and having navigated its many trials, I have taken the initiative to establish Amore, where I serve as the founder and CEO. There are countless children facing similar struggles, striving to overcome the pain associated with the system. With your support, our organization is poised to achieve remarkable milestones beyond our current vision.


**Empowering Growth Through Self-Improvement**


The organization plays a crucial role in sustaining our mission: "Changing Faces, Changing Lives," aimed at assisting 25 to 50 disadvantaged young girls in our community. Your generous contributions will significantly bolster our S.E.E.D.S. program, enabling it to expand. The funds you provide will be allocated towards acquiring our building for our cosmetology school, Amore Cosmetology Academy Inc., books and kits for a new cohort of participants, as well as printing essential curriculum materials. 


We sincerely appreciate your generous support. We are committed to keeping you updated on the outcomes of our initiatives and the positive changes we can create together through your contributions. On behalf of Amore Transitional Group, Inc. and the at-risk youth in the foster care system, thank you for your invaluable support.
