Boris

A fulfilled dream for Boris looked like something simple: a college meal plan. But the impact? So much bigger.

For students aging out of foster care, the stress of covering basic needs like food can make it nearly impossible to fully focus on school, opportunities, and long-term goals. Boris was preparing to transfer to a four-year university, balancing academics, leadership commitments, and two summer internships in TV, film, and storytelling, all while trying to build stability for his future.

Because someone chose to support his dream, Boris no longer had to carry the constant weight of wondering how meals would be covered during the semester.

“Your contribution made a meaningful difference in my academic journey. Your generosity provided not only nourishment, but also stability and reassurance.”

Boris recently earned his associate’s degree and is continuing toward his bachelor’s this fall.

His dream is not only to succeed professionally, but to use his future to serve people living on the margins of society and create meaningful change in his community!
