Through the College Essential Care Kit Program, I've witnessed firsthand the profound impact of providing young people with the tools they need to succeed. I too was a recipient. I'm committed to continuing my volunteer work with City Motivators and the remarkable Felicia Walker, who embody the spirit of selfless service.
