Uyi left foster care around 2014/15, being discharged to family via a kinship placement. Unfortunately, this did not go well and by 2017 Uyi was residing in a homeless shelter. He remained there for about a year before moving to Binghamton to attend college. Uyi is not currently still in school due to his lack of a strong support system, but was linked to our agency in the hopes of locating housing back in NYC where our nonprofit, and others, can better assist him on his path to success.

"Thank you for generous gift! With your help, Uyi was able to purchase groceries that held him over till public assistance was again available. Uyi is having difficulty adjusting to living independently for the first time and is so grateful for your support while he struggles to find his feet."
