Featured Narrative

From legacy to future

We honor Jane E. Toussaint’s example of practical care—showing up consistently, supplying what is needed, and building trust over time. That same spirit informs how we support youth today: through structured programmes, mentorship, and partnerships that make opportunity more reachable and resilient.
