In 2020, Emmanuel joined United Friends’ Pathways program with a determination to rewrite his story. After experiencing homelessness and navigating challenges throughout his childhood, he found the support he needed to turn things around! Completing probation, re-enrolling in school, and working toward a brighter future.

Today, Emmanuel’s optimism drives him forward. He is saving, working, and striving to be a role model for young people, proving that life holds more than negative influences. His journey is a testament to resilience, hope, and the power of a fresh start.

At United Friends, we believe in the life-changing impact of a second chance. And thanks to supporters like you, youth like Emmanuel have the opportunity to build the futures they deserve.
