Success Story
Gloria
Owner
Happy Kids Day Care
When I came to this country, it was as if my past had been erased. My mother tongue was no longer useful. I went from managing a staff of forty at a nonprofit for underprivileged children in Colombia to cleaning other people’s houses. I had no credit history. When I came across a flyer about Opportunity Fund at the 4C's San Mateo, I knew I had found an organization that was willing to take a chance on me.
