Why we love Valerie
When ECHOage encounters a woman like Valerie we immediately want to elevate her and the work she does to help women and children in our country. Her passion for the Children's Aid Foundation of Canada and it's primary goal of making life better for children who would otherwise not receive protection affects us deeply. We are grateful to Valerie and every person who works at CAF and we are committed to raising awareness for the work you do to help mothers in particular. Thank you to Valerie and the whole team.
