In Their Own Words
One of my criteria for giving is being able to see the impact of my dollars. I can see the progress the children who go through WMRECC make—and it is astonishing.
Geoff, DonorIt feels good to know that the children can relate to us adults and that we can help them overcome any cultural barriers or issues while being academically successful.
