How one good turn can lead to many others

“How far does the long arm of an original idea reach? Who knows where it will stop?”

Encouragement and support through a long process

“Some places try to discourage you when you ask for support, but at Project Genesis, you don’t feel judged; you feel welcomed. You can voice what is in your heart, and they listen, which is so nice. At Project Genesis, they encourage you.”
