"We are so grateful for the amazing partnerships that we have developed over the past decade, this is a grassroots organization that touches the people, and Cosandra and I were paying for most of the supplies; however, she worked tirelessly to make the foundation stronger and to secure the partnerships," said Gwendolyn Priestley, Founding board member.
