I’m passionate about improving the lives of children—especially when it comes to access to education, their safety, and their livelihood. I believe even the smallest positive change to a child’s life can have a profound impact on the rest of their life and that’s why the work the Foundling does with children is so important. The Foundling has been helping children since 1869, and I’m proud to be involved with such a dedicated and prominent organization.”
