Providing Help. Creating Hope.
‘I Just Want a Better Life'
Nishi Akter has one main goal in her studies at Fordham University: “I’m doing all this as a way out of the cycle of poverty.” “I don’t have reliable, consistent meals every day,” said Ms. Akter, who rarely eats more than twice a day. Though embarrassed at first to ask for help, she was ultimately connected with Abraham House, an affiliated member of Catholic Charities New York.
