Tori set a goal—and made it happen 💪🚗

Through Opportunity Passport, she saved, stayed committed, and used her match to purchase her car. Now she has reliable transportation to get to work, appointments, and even take trips—like going camping and enjoying time outdoors.

This kind of impact doesn’t happen alone—thank you to our partners Annie E. Casey Foundation, Nusenda Credit Union , Lineberry Foundation, Carl C. Anderson Charitable Foundation, Albuquerque Community Foundation and the New Mexico State Treasurer for investing in young people and making opportunities like this possible 💛

Join us in congratulating this amazing young person!
