I needed not only a stable, healthy, and nurturing home for the two of us, but also a supportive environment that would allow me to complete my degree in international business and economics. Because of my education, and the skills I’m learning at Jeremiah Program, I’m acquiring powerful tools with which I will create a strong and bright future for Valentino.
