R & B star Mary J. Blige, along with her partner Steve Stoute will launch the Mary J. Blige and Steve Stoute Foundation for the Advancement of Women Now, Inc. (FFAWN), a new charity initiative to inspire women from all walks of life to reach their individual potential. Through scholarships, grants, and programs that foster strong self-esteem, career development, and personal growth, FFAWN is intended to help women gain the confidence and skills they need to achieve success.  FFAWN will initially focus its efforts in Yonkers and surrounding communities in Westchester and then expand its scope to include the Greater New York area and, eventually, the entire country. and visit http://ourworld.ffawn.org/index.php for ways to get involved.

  1. My name is Itasca Woodard. I am a single mother of two children. Ten years ago I made a huge mistake and was convecited of a felony. I have several associate degrees and a ceritfication as a Nail Tech. As of today I am unable to receive any type of employment or housing. I am stressed out and confussed on what to do. I have been given a life sentence without being behind bars. I am willing and able to work, but is denied a second chance in this cold wicked world. I refuse to give up on myself. God has forgiven me, but society won’t. What can I do about my situation.
