An Empowering Outfit for Manny who is working hard to make a difference

Posted Feb 19, 2020
Manny is motivated to change foster care, to improve it for other refugees like him, who come in scared, alone and completely dependent on the system! He is hoping for an outfit that will help him feel empowered and taken seriously, during the big interview with his team. Together they are all hoping to make the difference needed to enforce the appropriate changes to the system.

Manny is 21 years old and lives in NY

Manny came to the states as a refugee. He was put into foster care, raised in a group home and has incredible drive. He is so committed to reaching his full potential, going to college and making is community better! In fact, Manny is part of a committee led by and comprised of foster youth. Their mission is to identify the problems with our foster care and make it better for future foster children.
